Publication number: 20250139386Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to methods, transcriptomics systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for enabling natural language transcriptomics analysis. In some examples, genomic data including gene expression profiles for cells is transformed into sequences of genes ordered by expression level for each of the cells. The sequences of genes are annotated with metadata in a natural language format. A large language model (LLM) is then fine-tuned using the annotated sequences. The LLM is pretrained for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. The fine-tuned LLM is applied to generate and output a result in response to a received prompt in the natural language format. Thus, the LLMs of this technology advantageously both generate and interpret transcriptomics data and interact in natural language to generate meaningful text from cells and valid genes, among many other types of results.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2024Publication date: May 1, 2025Applicant: Yale UniversityInventors: Rahul Dhodapkar, David Van Dijk

Patent number: 12247998Abstract: A scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscope at cryogenic temperatures (cryo-SNOM) configured with Akiyama probes for studying low energy excitations in quantum materials present in high magnetic fields. The s-SNOM is provided with atomic force microscopy (AFM) control, which predominantly utilizes a laser-based detection scheme for determining the cantilever tapping motion of metal-coated Akiyama probes, where the cantilever tapping motion is detected through a piezoelectric signal. The Akiyama-based cryo-SNOM attains high spatial resolution, good near-field contrast, and is able to perform imaging with a significantly more compact system capable of handling simultaneous demands of vibration isolation, low base temperature, precise nano-positioning, and optical access. Results establish the potential of s-SNOM based on self-sensing piezo-probes, which can easily accommodate near-IR and far-infrared wavelengths and high magnetic fields.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2022Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignees: The Research Foundation for The State University of New York, Yale UniversityInventors: Michael Dapolito, Mengkun Liu, Xinzhong Chen, Adrian Gozar
