Some more context -
I am a biophysics PhD candidate and SIGF Bio-X fellow at Stanford. I have been working on deep learning for genomics with my advisor Anshul Kundaje since conception 2.5 years ago. A year later most of the lab was using deep learning for their research. Last fall we had the first Deep Learning for Genomics class at Stanford and 70-80 students took it. Next month, my advisor and my colleague Avanti Shrikumar will give talks at Nvidia's GTC conference on this topic (8000 people attending!), I will debut a 2-hour interactive presentation/workshop with Nvidia's Deep Learning Institute.
It's coming and we need to expand the field - my goal is to tell it like it is without wasting your time.
