Our paper is finally out in @natcomms.nature.com! Have a look if you're interested in how we can use PLMs to learn more about viral proteins, particularly with limited sequence data!

Our PLM-interact is out in Nature Communications! We show that jointly encoding protein pairs using protein language models improves protein–protein interaction prediction performance and enables fine-tuning to predict mutation effects in human PPIs. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Recently we have been doing lots of work on how modern #AI methods can be applied to studying virus evolution, so it felt like great timing to write a perspective about it! Very happy to see our paper as editor's pick in JVI!🥳🥳 doi.org/10.1128/jvi....
