Unveiling new disease, pathway, and gene associations via multi-scale neural networks [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 15(4), p.e0231059 (2020), 2019 Diseases involve complex processes and modifications to the cellular machinery. The gene expression profile of the affected cells contains characteristic patterns linked to a disease. Hence, biological knowledge pertaining to a disease can be derived from a patient cell's profile, improving our diagnosis ability, as well as our grasp of disease risks ...
