AI to decode the secret language of cells
What if your cells could talk? Jérémie Kalfon, a doctoral student at the Institut Pasteur, has developed scPRINT, an artificial intelligence system trained on more than 50 million cells that can predict diseases and reveal previously unknown genetic links.

He's created an AI that can read... the language of cells!
Jérémie Kalfon, a doctoral student in the Institut Pasteur's Machine Learning for Integrative Genomics team, has developed scPRINT, an AI trained on over 50 million human and animal cells.
It can predict if a cell is sick, guess its type, understand how its genes are expressed... and it discovers links that take researchers years to find.
The goal: to build a virtual cell, to better diagnose, treat and understand diseases such as cancer. And that's just the beginning.
