"Genomic Language Decoded: AI Improves mRNA for Enhanced Vaccines"

Researchers at Princeton University have developed a language model that can decode the untranslated region of mRNA, optimizing efficiency and improving vaccines. By training the model on a small variety of species, they were able to generate hundreds of new optimized sequences, resulting in a 33% increase in the overall efficiency of protein production for mRNA vaccines. This breakthrough has the potential to enhance therapeutics for various infectious diseases and cancers, while also shedding light on gene regulation and its role in disease origins.
