Warren Alpert Computational Biology & Artificial Intelligence Scholars Program recruiting its second cohort of scholars

We are thrilled to announce that the Warren Alpert Computational Biology & Artificial Intelligence ( WA CBAI) Scholars Program in the Department of Biomedical Data Science at Stanford is recruiting its second cohort of scholars for the 2025-2026 academic year.  We have a one-year postdoctoral fellowship position available through the program. This is a fantastic opportunity for recent Ph.D. graduates who are interested in advancing their training and becoming part of the Computational Bio & AI community at Stanford.  Please see below for more information.

The application is now open and will close on March 15th, 2025. We would greatly appreciate it if you could share this opportunity with your networks and potential applicants.

For more details, please visit the WA CBAI website. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to xsitu@stanford.edu.

Gevaert group published in Nature Machine Intelligence: Towards a more inductive world for drug repurposing approaches

Nature Machine Intelligence:
In collaboration with Dr. Mikel Hernaez at CIMA, the Gevaert lab has benchmarked inductive and transductive methods for drug target interaction discovery. We show that transductive methods don’t generalize and lead to inflated performance when traditionally evaluated, making them unsuitable for drug repurposing. We propose a biologically driven inductive strategy for negative-edge subsampling.
