The subtleties of how genes are transcribed into RNA molecules like the one depicted here are key to understanding the inner workings of cells.Christoph Burgstedt/Science Photo Library via Getty ImagesThe Research Brief is a short take about interesting academic work.
The big idea
We combined a machine learning algorithm with knowledge gleaned from...
