Congratulations to colleagues Gary Churchill (@jacksonlab) & Andrea Di Francesco (Calico) on this landmark publication. We were fortunate to phenotype these mice to extend our visual frailty index to genetically diverse mice (preprint on way).

🐀 Please RT 🐀 RATTACA is back at #SfN24 — come see us tomorrow at Booth #1828. RATTACA uses polygenic risk scores to predict behavioral traits in outbred rats. Now you can study genetic predisposition to substance abuse in drug naive rats! Details at
The Center for GWAS in outbred rats ( https://t.co/9QUgHIn1JW) has a booth at #SfN22 (#3229). We are offering outbred rats with *genetically predicted* behavioral and physiological phenotypes. It's like selected lines, but we can predict for dozens of traits. What traits? Read on.

The paper looks interesting. The term "AI framework" should be avoided. It's a loaded term with poor definition. The paper itself does not use contain this term and specifically states "a nonlinear dynamical modeling framework using recurrent neural networks (RNNs)".
