Insight

Wang: Shuffling gene order does not alter expression biology

“For DNA sequences, the order of ATTG make total sense to us, right? But for expression data, they're literally just matrices. So it's really hard to assume, ah, an inherent order of genes. Even if we shuffle the order of genes, I think the biology doesn't chan…”

Wang: Autoregressive Models Type Sequentially, Diffusion Models Iteratively Edit

“What's the difference between autoregressive training versus diffusion language models is that it kind of, you can think of autoregressive training as typing. There is, for example, I like coffee, you have to type I, and then like, and coffee. There's inherent…”

Opinion

Wang: Virtual cells are a much broader concept than foundation models

“What's happening for this field is that we are lacking a concrete definition of virtual cells and people almost equate foundation model With virtual cell, but in my view, virtual cell is probably a much broader concept than just foundation models.”

Prediction Not checkable as stated

Wang: Virtual cell AI models will eventually replace physical cellular experiments

“Eventually we kind of, we can replace all the cellular experiments by simply running simulations on computer without even running the actual Experiments.”

Insight

Wang: Differential Equation Models Failed Because Biology Is Too Complex

“Largely speaking, that was a failed attempt in the sense that the biology is just way too complicated to write in a few predefined set of differential equations.”
