LifeLU: Understanding the Language of Life: Identifying and Characterizing the Language Units in Protein Sequences
Funding Agency: European Research Council, ERC Consolidator Grant
Dates: 2023-2028
This project aims to understand the "language" of proteins by identifying and characterizing the fundamental language units in protein sequences. By applying natural language processing techniques to protein sequences, the project seeks to unlock new insights into protein structure, function, and evolution.
