## Summary

Google DeepMind has released AlphaGenome 2, a model that predicts how genetic variants affect individual cell types and states. The company says it was trained on more than 100 million cell profiles across 68 tissues and identifies nearly twice as many gene-expression-changing variants as its predecessor. It is available for non-commercial research through the AlphaGenome API, with a limited private preview for commercial research.
