• Abstract: Predicting phenotypes with complex genetic bases based on a small, interpretable set of variant features remains a challenging task. Conventionally, data-driven approaches are utilized for this task, yet the high dimensional nature of genotype data makes the analysis and prediction difficult. Motivated by the extensive knowledge encoded in pre-trained LLMs and their success in processing complex biomedical concepts, we set to examine the ability of LLMs in feature selection and engineering for tabular genotype data, with a novel knowledge-driven framework. We develop FREEFORM, Free-flow Reasoning and Ensembling for Enhanced Feature Output and Robust Modeling, designed with chain-of-thought and ensembling principles, to select and engineer features with the intrinsic knowledge of LLMs. Evaluated on two distinct genotype-phenotype datasets, genetic ancestry and hereditary hearing loss, we find this framework outperforms several data-driven methods, particularly on low-shot regimes. FREEFORM is available as open-source framework at GitHub: https://github.com/PennShenLab/FREEFORM.

• Combining Domain-Specific Models and LLMs for Automated Disease Phenotyping from Survey Data [0.0]
  This pilot study investigated the potential of combining a domain-specific model, BERN2, with large language models (LLMs) to enhance automated phenotyping from research survey data. We employed BERN2, a named entity recognition and normalization model, to extract information from the ORIGINS survey data. BERN2 demonstrated high performance in extracting and normalizing disease mentions, and the integration of LLMs, particularly with Few Shot Inference and RAG orchestration, further improved accuracy.

  Large language models (LLMs) are promising for biomedical and healthcare research. We propose a collection of finetuned LLMs and multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) for three novel tasks in genomics and proteomic research. The models in Geneverse are trained and evaluated based on domain-specific datasets. We demonstrate that adapted LLMs and MLLMs perform well for these tasks and may outperform closed-source large-scale models.
