Developed and integrated a Geneformer-based gene embeddings calculation within the NVIDIA/bionemo-framework, enabling researchers to compute gene embeddings and construct gene co-expression networks for advanced gene-level analytics. The work introduced the bionemo.geneformer package and an accompanying Jupyter Notebook that demonstrates end-to-end extraction of gene embeddings and network construction. Implementation was carefully scoped to the geneformer module, reducing risk and simplifying future maintenance. Leveraging Python, PyTorch, and Pandas, the solution supports downstream network-based insights in bioinformatics research. This focused contribution enhanced the framework’s analytical capabilities, providing a robust foundation for gene expression analysis and data visualization within the existing ecosystem.
