Google DeepMind unveils AlphaGenome Atlas predicting effects of 9 billion human genome variants
Google DeepMind has unveiled AlphaGenome Atlas, a database that predicts the molecular effects of about 9 billion possible single-letter DNA variants in the human genome. It aims to help researchers quickly prioritise disease-related variants and analyse biological impacts to support genomics research and drug development. The atlas extends predictions beyond protein-coding regions into non-coding DNA and provides an AlphaGenome Variant Impact score combining AlphaGenome and AlphaMissense outputs.

AI music copyright standards gap adds to industry confusion
AI-generated music is spreading quickly, but South Korea still lacks clear standards for recognising copyrights. The Korea Music Copyright Association drew up its own rules for registering and managing AI-assisted music, then withdrew them about three weeks after implementation. Industry uncertainty over copyright registration and the distribution and settlement of royalties is expected to continue. The association has decided to put new registrations on hold until a new management system is prepared.

Women with night-owl pattern eat more late-night snacks and have higher body fat - study
A study found that women who stay awake late, described as having a night-owl pattern, were linked to higher body fat and metabolic indicators. The research, published in Frontiers, analysed data from 287 New Zealand women of European and Pacific ethnicity aged 18 to 45. Evening-type participants consumed more late-night food and had higher BMI and fat measures. Blood markers such as glucose and triglycerides were also higher, though generalisation is limited.
