Basel, Switzerland
Joined August 2015
In @NatRevGenet we outline strategies for in vivo pooled (single cell) CRISPR screens for genotype → phenotype mapping in animal models. This contains over a decade of hard earned knowledge by us and the field. Kudos to @AntonioSantinha & Alessio Strano. https://t.co/xtSjG7Ep4v

The success of AI applied to drug discovery is being decided by a number of clinical trials. So far, the results are lackluster. Why? For AI to have a transformational effect in drug discovery, training data must come from living mammals. (🧵1/9)

One of the major challenges in human genomics is the functional assessment of variants. Base and prime #CRISPR genome editing is making a big difference for meeting that challenge, as exemplified in this new report @NatureBiotech
