We wanted to build a tool like that for cell biology. So we took lots of reference single-cell RNA sequencing data from atlases and used our scalable machine learning algorithms to embed all of the gene expression data on these cells into compact vector representations — you can think of these as a signature for each cell.

Cell and gene therapies (CGTs) have made significant advancements in treating oncological diseases, with therapies like CAR-T cell treatments transforming cancer care. Early-phase clinical trials have shown the safety and efficacy of using stem cells for cardiac repair, encouraging further research and development.

How has nucleolar stress (NS) been linked to age-related diseases, and what approach did researchers use to investigate its toxicity? The nucleolus (and nucleolar stress) had been previously linked to aging and age-related diseases such as cancer or degeneration. However, the mechanism of this observation was not fully understood.

Shortly after finishing my studies, I landed my first job in industry working on cell biology research for several disease indications. TPD engages the body’s natural protein recycling system by selectively eliminating disease-causing proteins, ultimately addressing the root cause of disease.

Small snippets of double-stranded RNA were sprayed onto hot pepper plants to control a pest, called Frankliniella occidentalis. The RNA strands shut down a specific gene in the insects, and killed half after 7 days. RNA may offer a safer form of pest control in the future. Nature Chemical Biology. Current Biology.
