What it is

Novae models spatial-omics samples as graphs so cell states, neighborhoods and tissue domains can be learned jointly.

Evidence trail

BioAtlas keeps the path from source to decision visible. A connection records provenance; it does not imply that evidence is sufficient for every context.

Scientific lineage

Explore all foundations

These are transparent concept matches—not claims that one scientist alone caused this model. Each connection is based on the model’s recorded domain, scientific principles, technical terms or an explicit lineage link.

Genomics & cell systems

Gene regulation and the operon model

François Jacob & Jacques Monod

Target biology, perturbation models, transcriptomic response prediction and virtual cells all require an explicit model of regulated gene programs.

Matched concepts: expression, transcript, cell state
