Google's AlphaGenome 2 Reads DNA Cell by Cell to Find Where Disease Starts
Google DeepMind unveiled AlphaGenome 2 on November 11, an AI model that predicts how DNA variants change gene activity in individual human cell types and states. Trained on more than 107 million single-cell profiles across 68 tissues, it identifies nearly twice as many expression-changing variants as its predecessor — a step that could help scientists trace diseases back to the exact cells where they start.
