Utah Patent of the Month – October 2024
Recursion’s latest innovation leverages machine learning to unlock unprecedented insights into cellular biology through perturbation embedding models. This groundbreaking system creates digital maps of biology, enabling researchers to visualize and analyze the effects of various perturbations on cells with unmatched precision.
At its core, the system embeds data from perturbation experiments into a low-dimensional space, capturing the complex relationships between different perturbations in a streamlined format. By employing advanced algorithms, it calculates benchmark measures, such as consistency and bioactivity metrics, to evaluate the performance of these embedding models. These benchmarks ensure the reliability of the digital maps, empowering researchers to trust their data when making critical decisions.
One of the system’s standout features is its ability to generate both univariate and multivariate measures. Univariate measures focus on individual perturbation classes, assessing the consistency of observed effects. Meanwhile, multivariate measures compare bioactivity between multiple perturbation classes, providing a holistic view of biological interactions. These capabilities transform previously siloed data into actionable insights, accelerating hypothesis testing and therapeutic discovery.
The innovation extends to its user interface, which visualizes these complex relationships through intuitive digital maps. Researchers can interact with the maps to explore perturbation similarities, identify patterns, and validate predictions in real time. This approach democratizes access to sophisticated bioinformatics, making cutting-edge analysis accessible to a broader range of users.
By integrating robust machine learning models with user-friendly visualization tools, Recursion has redefined the study of cellular perturbations. This technology promises to streamline drug discovery, enhance biological understanding, and foster innovation across life sciences. It’s a testament to the power of AI in advancing healthcare and research.

What is the R&D Tax Credit?
The Research & Experimentation Tax Credit (or R&D Tax Credit), is a general business tax credit under Internal Revenue Code section 41 for companies that incur research and development (R&D) costs in the United States. The credits are a tax incentive for performing qualified research in the United States, resulting in a credit to a tax return. For the first three years of R&D claims, 6% of the total qualified research expenses (QRE) form the gross credit. In the 4th year of claims and beyond, a base amount is calculated, and an adjusted expense line is multiplied times 14%. Click here to learn more.
