Harnessing AI to Build Virtual Cells

2026-04-14

Abstract excerpt

A virtual cell is a world model of a cell: a computational system that predicts, simulates and programs cellular processes across modalities and scales. An important path toward this goal is to model how genetic and chemical perturbations give rise to transcriptional responses, a core capability for disease understanding and drug discovery. However, current approaches remain expert-intensive, relying on iterative...
