“Single-cell methods in biology are at this point of democratization, which is really exciting.” @jonahcool on our effort to build high-quality, well-annotated datasets across tissues + states so more scientists have what they need to advance discovery bit.ly/3U31D1e

We love it when others build dev tools for building on Tahoe-100M. Today, we highlight scDataset in our @tahoe_ai blog. Developed by @davide_dascenzo & @sebacultrera, it makes it easier to train DL models on datasets with the daunting scale of Tahoe-100M (see poster in ICML '25)

I f*** love this. And to put even more momentum behind this awesome movement by our @arcinstitute friends: 🥁@tahoe_ai will give $25K to the best model that is also open-sourced with weights on @huggingface for everyone's use! + maybe a mention on X by @ClementDelangue? ;)
Register today for the Virtual Cell Challenge and use AI to solve one of biology’s most complex problems. Announced in @CellCellPress, the competition is hosted by Arc Institute and sponsored by @nvidia, @10xGenomics, and @UltimaGenomics.
