Current research project

DMD Minimum Perturbome

Build the first small, controlled set of DMD muscle perturbation experiments.

Candidate pool21 genes14 occupy provisional candidate slots; the rest remain replacement candidates.
Panel identities assigned24 of 2414 candidate genes plus 10 controls; still editable.
Panel slots frozen0 of 24No assignment is checksum-locked or registered yet.
Primary phenotype chosenNoSelect one main functional outcome before the study starts.
Lead Study Cards completed38%ZNF133 and MON1A drafts still have open fields.
Pilot registeredNoRegistration stays locked until the design is complete.
Do this next

Sign off the assigned panel and one primary phenotype.

All identities are provisionally assigned. Freeze the panel checksum, functional endpoint, meaningful-effect threshold and negligible-effect margin before registration.

Why assigned is not the same as frozen

A target or control identity occupies a named draft panel slot. Assignment remains editable until panel freeze.

The full panel and replacement rules are checksum-locked and may change only through a versioned amendment.

Where current evidence endsLimited muscle-context screening
What is still missingIndependent perturbation in a DMD muscle model

What this means: the platform is ready to organize a pilot, but no candidate has yet crossed the independent DMD muscle validation step.

Disease-context virtual cell

A muscle phenotype emerges from a system—not one isolated gene.

The DMD validation track must connect myotube-intrinsic responses with fibro-adipogenic, immune, vascular and extracellular-matrix context.

Data reality

The scientific bottleneck is visible as a funnel

Evidence gaps

Multi-fidelity path

F0–F4 shows what must happen next

F3/F4 not crossed

Current scientific breakpoint: F2 → F3. The next experimental resource should produce independent disease-relevant perturbation replication before any prediction claim expands.
