This week’s recap highlights Google/Deepmind’s new AlphaProteo tool for protein design, tools for protein structure alignment and analysis, biases in polygenic risk scores due to overlap and kinship, highly variable gene selection in single cell RNA-seq, and reconstruction of a 4.2 billion year old last universal common ancestor of life on Earth (spoiler alert: CRISPR-Cas is >4B years old!). Others that caught my attention include a new

VP (Pete) Nagraj is a long time friend, colleague, and collaborator, and is the author of this post. Pete and I have co-authored over a dozen publications, and have taught several graduate courses in data science together. Pete leads the health security analytics / infectious disease modeling and forecasting group at Signature Science, where we started this work together last year.

I’ve been using the llama3.1:70b model just released by Meta using Ollama running on my MacBook Pro. Ollama makes it easy to talk to a locally running LLM in the terminal (ollama run llama3.1:70b) or via a familiar GUI with the open-webui Docker container. Here I’ll demonstrate using the ollamar package on CRAN to talk to an LLM running locally on my Mac.

This post is about the R package development experience with Positron, the new IDE from Posit based on VS Code. This is not a tutorial on R package development in general — there are great resources for that elsewhere. Read on.Subscribe to Paired Ends to get future posts like this delivered to your e-mail.
