**Talk Title**

AI in Biomedicine: Applications in Characterizing Variant Effects and
Drug Binding

**Abstract**

I will provide a more detailed abstract shortly, but for now, I plan
to cover material related to the following papers (+ some others):

variant-impact models**

a physical, multiscale and interpretable approach**

Effects of Non-coding Variants by Leveraging DNA Language Models**
