Happy to share that Flashzoi is now published! We enhanced Borzoi with RoPE & FlashAttention for >3x faster training/inference & 2.4x reduction in memory usage. This brings large-scale genomic analysis and fine-tuning within reach of academic budgets. đź“„:

Higher eQTL power reveals signals that boost GWAS colocalization
Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies in human cohorts typically detect at least one regulatory signal per gene, and have been proposed as a way to explain mechanisms of genetic liability...
