Our annual event at Norwich RNA Club: AI in RNA Biology. Great speakers! Please join us this Thursday at 2pm @JohnInnesCentre @EarlhamInst @alperakay_ @WHaerty @YiliangDing @NorwichRNAClub @NorwichResearch @uniofeastanglia
Can AI learn the language of plant life?🧬 HFSP Fellow Haopeng Yu developed PlantRNA-FM, a foundation model trained on RNA data from 1124 plant species. It decodes how RNA shapes gene regulation, boosting plant science and crop design. 🌱🤖 #AI #RNA 🔗 zurl.co/8Ksoy
I believe that with this powerful AI model, we can uncover more fascinating rules hidden within plant nucleotides. Thank the support from the @HFSP and @JohnInnesCentre, and thank for the support from @YiliangDing , Prof. Li, Prof. Zhang and other co-authors!

Congratulations🥂
Super lucky to get the Faraday!@royalsociety Very grateful for the support from @JohnInnesCentre, @CarolineDeanLab, @DingLab_RNA, and all the collaborators/friends🙏jic.ac.uk/press-release/…
It was a great honor to attend the New Phytologist next generation scientists conference. I believe that more and more scientists will harness AI-driven foundation models to uncover new insights in plant science.@NewPhyt @JohnInnesCentre
Absolutely delighted to be the recipient of the Royal Society of Chemistry Jeremy Knowles award. This prize reflects both the work of our group and also the support of colleagues, collaborators, mentors and funders along the way @RoySocChem @School_Pharmacy @UCLLifeSciences
Delighted to attend the 2025 RNA-AI meeting in Switzerland. Let's use the foundation model to identify functional RNA structure motifs! #RNA-AI
Happy Chinese New Year🎉新年快乐🏮
Thanks to @YiliangDing and Cambridge CSSA, I had the pleasure of attending this Cambridge Chem&Bio Forum. Great to meet new friends and explore AI applications in these fields. 🤝 @ZutaoYu @lab_zhou
Finally, it's online🎉Our PlantRNA-FM can understand both RNA sequence and RNA structure information. I believe this tool will uncover more fascinating nucleotide patterns in post-transcription regulation. @YiliangDing @JohnInnesCentre @UniofExeter nature.com/articles/s4225…
Thrilled to be part of such a fantastic team. Merry Xmas and Happy New Year 🎄🎉

Excited to share our latest work published in collaboration with Huakun Zhang’s group on how RNA structure regulates subgenomic RNA decay in wheat @BRiC_ISP @JohnInnesCentre @HaopengYu nature.com/articles/s4146…
A very nice PhD project in my lab in collaborations with @DrZoeWaller and @ant_dodd! Please share it🙏! biodtp.norwichresearchpark.ac.uk/projects/inves…
My postdoc @HaopengYu gave a great presentation on our plant RNA foundation model at the @JohnInnesCentre/@TheSainsburyLab Annual Meeting #ASM2024👍👍👍
I'm delighted that everyone has shown such enthusiasm for the topic of AI. I'm particularly pleased that you enjoyed my presentation. I'd like to express my gratitude for the huge support from the Ding Lab. #ASM @YiliangDing @JohnInnesCentre
Following yesterday's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine awarded for RNA biology and today's Nobel Prize in Physics given for advancements in artificial intelligence, the next frontier appears to be the convergence of AI and RNA research.
