Researchers have developed PertMind, a novel approach that leverages cellular perturbation data as reinforcement learning environments for large language models (LLMs). This method trains LLMs to infer biological responses by using gene responses as computable rewards, bypassing the need for costly manual curation of biological reasoning traces. PertMind demonstrated improved response inference in new cellular contexts while maintaining general language abilities and showed transferability to various biological reasoning tasks, including identifying reverse perturbations and interpreting biological processes.
