Foundation models are reshaping computational biology. Pretrained on massive corpora of protein or genomic sequences, models such as ESM2 (a protein language model) and Evo 2 (a DNA language model) capture statistical regularities of biological sequences.
These transfer well to a wide range of downstream tasks, including structure prediction, variant effect, and functional annotation. Source
