David has consistently been at the forefront of major leaps in model architecture design for regulatory genomics. Basset, Basenji, Enformer, Borzoi (& now another exciting dog-named model whose name I’m blanking on) have all pushed the field forward in meaningful ways. 2/

I also just want to thank everyone in the ML for regulatory genomics community for being such a close knit collegial community who have been doing grounded science from the very early days. 1/

Just want to give a shout-out to David Kelley @drklly who I think often does not get the credit he deserves (outside our core community). I want to highlight why I think he is such a fantastic scientist and leader in regulatory genomics. 1/
