## Summary

Google DeepMind says AlphaGenome 2, trained on over 100M profiles across 68 tissues, analyzes one cell type at a time. It identifies nearly twice as many mutations that turn genes on and off as its previous model.

Looking at a whole tissue at once is like looking at a blurry image: you get the visuals, but miss what’s happening inside individual pixels.

Trained on 100M+ profiles across 68 tissues, AlphaGenome 2 focuses on one cell type at a time, spotting nearly twice as many mutations that turn genes on and off as our previous model.
