Highly efficient Cas9-mediated transcriptional programming

A Chavez, J Scheiman, S Vora, BW Pruitt, M Tuttle… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
The RNA-guided nuclease Cas9 can be reengineered as a programmable transcription
factor. However, modest levels of gene activation have limited potential applications. We …

Kubric: A scalable dataset generator

…, V Sitzmann, A Stone, D Sun, S Vora… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - openaccess.thecvf.com
Data is the driving force of machine learning, with the amount and quality of training data
often being more important for the performance of a system than architecture and training …

Scene representation transformer: Geometry-free novel view synthesis through set-latent scene representations

…, K Greff, N Radwan, S Vora… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - openaccess.thecvf.com
A classical problem in computer vision is to infer a 3D scene representation from few images
that can be used to render novel views at interactive rates. Previous work focuses on …

Cas9 gRNA engineering for genome editing, activation and repression

…, D Ter-Ovanesyan, J Qian, BW Pruitt, J Beal, S Vora… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
We demonstrate that by altering the length of Cas9-associated guide RNA (gRNA) we were
able to control Cas9 nuclease activity and simultaneously perform genome editing and …

[PDF][PDF] An integrated genome-wide CRISPRa approach to functionalize lncRNAs in drug resistance

…, JD Lee, A Chavez, YR Lee, D Nachmani, S Vora… - Cell, 2018 - cell.com
Resistance to chemotherapy plays a significant role in cancer mortality. To identify genetic
units affecting sensitivity to cytarabine, the mainstay of treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (…

Nesf: Neural semantic fields for generalizable semantic segmentation of 3d scenes

S Vora, N Radwan, K Greff, H Meyer, K Genova… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2021 - arxiv.org
We present NeSF, a method for producing 3D semantic fields from posed RGB images
alone. In place of classical 3D representations, our method builds on recent work in implicit …

Robustnerf: Ignoring distractors with robust losses

S Sabour, S Vora, D Duckworth… - Proceedings of the …, 2023 - openaccess.thecvf.com
Neural radiance fields (NeRF) excel at synthesizing new views given multi-view, calibrated
images of a static scene. When scenes include distractors, which are not persistent during …

Next stop for the CRISPR revolution: RNA‐guided epigenetic regulators

S Vora, M Tuttle, J Cheng, G Church - The FEBS journal, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats ( CRISPR s) and CRISPR ‐associated
(Cas) proteins offer a breakthrough platform for cheap, programmable, and effective …

Nesf: Neural semantic fields for generalizable semantic segmentation of 3d scenes

S Vora, N Radwan, K Greff, H Meyer, K Genova… - 2022 - openreview.net
We present NeSF, a method for producing 3D semantic fields from posed RGB images alone.
In place of classical 3D representations, our method builds on recent work in neural fields …

Rational design of a compact CRISPR-Cas9 activator for AAV-mediated delivery

S Vora, J Cheng, R Xiao, NJ VanDusen, L Quintino… - BioRxiv, 2018 - biorxiv.org
Akin to Zinc Finger and Transcription Activator Like Effector based transcriptional modulators,
nuclease-null CRISPR-Cas9 provides a groundbreaking programmable DNA binding …
