Excited to share our RegVelo paper in Cell
www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

We unify RNA velocity + GRNs into one model → better OOD prediction of perturbations (e.g. gene KOs), with examples incl. neural crest KO predictions 🔬

Big thanks to W Wang, Z Hu & T Sauka-Spengler 🙏

'(...) gene regulatory network inference methods largely neglect the dynamic nature of biological systems. To overcome this conceptual disconnect, we present RegVelo, a bottom-up, actionable & interpretable deep learning framework that jointly models splicing kinetics & gene regulatory interactions'

7/ Why it matters:
RegVelo isn’t just about modeling—it’s actionable.
It allows systematic in silico perturbations of cell dynamics that can guide experimental designs and uncover mechanisms driving cellular fate. 🚀

8/ What sets RegVelo apart?
• Interpretability: Models splicing kinetics + GRNs together.
• Actionability: Enables predictions of gene interactions & perturbation outcomes.
• Dynamic insights: Captures GRN changes over time.
December 12, 2024 at 2:48 PM
4/ How does RegVelo perform?
We validated RegVelo on:
• Simulated & cell-cycle data (with ground truth)
• Murine pancreatic endocrinogenesis 
• Human hematopoiesis
• Zebrafish development
It faithfully maps cellular changes & identifies lineage drivers! 🔬
