Cell-Type-Directed Design of Synthetic Enhancers for Testing Gene Function

Описание: In this episode of Discover ASAP, Seppe De Winter, MS, Niklas Kempynck, MS, David Mauduit, PhD, and Ibrahim Taskiran, PhD, members of Collaborative Research Network’s (CRN) Team Voet, join Devin Snyder, PhD, senior program officer at Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s (ASAP), to discuss CREsted. This deep learning model can be used to efficiently design synthetic, cell-type-specific enhancers to permit testing of gene function in context.
