Researchers have developed ELISA, a novel interpretable framework designed to bridge the gap between single-cell RNA sequencing data and biological discovery. This hybrid generative AI agent unifies expression embeddings from scGPT with semantic retrieval capabilities powered by BioBERT. ELISA can process gene signatures, natural language concepts, or a mix of both, performing tasks such as pathway activity scoring and ligand-receptor interaction prediction directly on embedded data. Benchmarked against existing methods, ELISA demonstrated significant improvements in cell type retrieval and successfully replicated published biological findings while also generating novel hypotheses.
