A DNA foundation model predicts osteoporosis risk genes without proximity bias

2026-03-12

Abstract excerpt

Targets supported by human genetic associations are more than twice as likely to progress from clinical development to approval. Genome-wide association studies are the largest source of genetic evidence for disease risk but linking non-coding variants to effector genes remains a significant barrier to identifying causal targets. Current gene-mapping approaches suffer from proximity bias, largely ignoring distal g...
