🧬 Proud to share our new paper! A complete genome assembly from Saudi Arabia (KSA001), freely available to all. Special shoutout to @coolmaksat for leading the bioinformatics. Also hard work to get this IRB-approved

2nd day of #NeSy2024 is about to start, with a session on neurosymbolic languages. Will be great to see how this work can contribute to reproducibility of NeSy research and experiments.

Ontologies model a consensus, not reality. (@CPesquita at #NeSy2024).

Billions of statements in biological knowledge graphs! Millions of nodes, billions of triples. Neurosymbolic methods are not yet ready to handle this data. (From @CPesquita's keynote at #NeSy2024).

"Size matters" --- knowledge graphs and ontologies in life sciences are possibly larger than in any other field; they are a formidable challenge for any AI method, symbolic or neural #nesy2024.

At the #nesy2024 keynote today, @CPesquita highlights how medical and biological research was one main driver in the developments in logic and AI throughout history - in the words of Galen, "That the best doctor is also a philosopher" #nesy2024.

What can life sciences do for neuro-symbolic AI? Excited for the #bioinformatics-related keynote by @CPesquita at #NeSy2024 - starting soon!.

@azzathamer Read the article to find out how the neurosymbolic model learns to interpret different types of evidence (from model organism phenotypes over #GeneOntology functions to anatomical site of gene expression) and finally link the variant to #RareDisease phenotypes.

Really happy to host @ChenJiaoyan1 at @KAUST_News - learned a lot about #neurosymbolic AI on the #SemanticWeb, #ontology embeddings, and using #LLM for knowledge engineering.

Invited by @leechuck , made an one-hour seminar in @CBRC_KAUST on "Neural-symbolic Knowledge Representation with Ontology and Knowledge Graph Embeddings" and had a lot of interesting discussion. It's a super pleasant trip.

New work by my former student (now Prof) @azzathamer on phenotype-based prioritization of genetic variants for #RareDisease The work demonstrates how neurosymbolic AI can be used in domains like #RareDisease with little training data

@CBRC_KAUST @SarahAl33162257 Right afterwards, @azzathamer will defend her PhD thesis on variant prioritization with phenotype ontologies and machine learning Again, let me know if you like to attend.

Today is an exciting day @CBRC_Kaust: first, my student @SarahAl33162257 will defend her PhD thesis on ontology design patterns and phenotype ontologies. Msg me if you like to join by Zoom and hear about integrating and evaluating ontologies!.

Finally arrived in Japan for #biohackjp (first time after the long COVID break). Still waiting for my flight to Tokamatsu, seems I will arrive 2 hours late for the symposium; hope I am still let in!.
