scGPT: Towards Building a Foundation Model for Single-Cell Multi-omics Using Generative AI
Open accessAbstract
Generative pre-trained models have achieved remarkable success in various domains such as natural language processing and computer vision. Specifically, the combination of large-scale diverse datasets and pre-trained transformers has emerged as a promising approach for developing foundation models. Drawing parallels between linguistic constructs and cellular biology — where texts comprise words, similarly, cells are defined by genes — our study probes the applicability of foundation models to advance cellular biology and genetics research. Utilizing the burgeoning single-cell sequencing data, we have pioneered the construction of a foundation model for single-cell biology, scGPT, which is based on generative pre-trained transformer across a repository of over 33 million cells. Our findings illustrate that scGPT, a generative pre-trained transformer, effectively distills critical biological insights concerning genes and cells. Through the further adaptation of transfer learning, scGPT can be optimized to achieve superior performance across diverse downstream applications. This includes tasks such as cell-type annotation, multi-batch integration, multi-omic integration, genetic perturbation prediction, and gene network inference. The scGPT codebase is publicly available at https://github.com/bowang-lab/scGPT .
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
scGPT is a generative pretrained transformer foundation model for single-cell biology, pretrained on over 33 million human scRNA-seq cells and fine-tuned for cell-type annotation, integration, perturbation prediction, and gene network inference. It reports state-of-the-art or competitive performance across these tasks and identifies a scaling law where larger pretraining data improves downstream fine-tuning.
Key findings
- Pretraining used 33 million normal human scRNA-seq cells from CELLxGENE, spanning 51 organs/tissues and 441 studies; UMAP of a 10% subset showed cell types separated into distinct clusters despite over 400 studies.
- Cell-type annotation: scGPT achieved high precision (>0.8) for most hPancreas cell types except rare types, around 0.85 accuracy on multiple sclerosis, and ≥0.7 precision for most tumor-infiltrating myeloid cell types; it outperformed TOSICA and scBert on Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and MacroF1.
- Perturbation prediction: scGPT achieved the highest correlation on both Adamson and Norman datasets versus GEARS and CPA; in reverse perturbation prediction it identified 71.4% correct perturbations (5/7 test cases) within top 5 predictions, a 95.2% speedup over random tryouts (105.5 average attempts out of 210).
- Integration and GRN: PBMC 10K AvgBIO was 0.821, 5–10% higher than compared methods; ASAP PBMC AvgBATCH was 0.951 versus scMoMaT’s 0.916; scGPT uniquely identified 22 Reactome pathways, 14 immune-related, and attention analysis found all top 20 DDIT3-influenced genes and 19/20 BHLHE40-influenced genes as ChIP-Atlas targets.
Methods
- Design: two-stage generative pretraining and fine-tuning of a transformer that jointly learns cell and gene embeddings; a specialized attention mask enables generative prediction on non-sequential gene expression, with fine-tuning objectives including GEP, GEPC, ECS, DAR, and CLS.
- Data: pretraining on 33 million normal human scRNA-seq cells from CELLxGENE; downstream datasets included hPancreas, multiple sclerosis, myeloid, Adamson, Norman, COVID-19, PBMC 10K, Perirhinal Cortex, 10X Multiome PBMC, BMMC, ASAP PBMC, and Immune Human.
- Analysis: benchmarks against TOSICA, scBert, GEARS, CPA, scVI, Seurat, Harmony, scGLUE, and scMoMaT; metrics included Accuracy, Precision, Recall, MacroF1, Pearson correlation and corr(Δ), AvgBIO, AvgBATCH, Overall, and Reactome pathway enrichment.
Limitations
- Stated: the scaling law appeared to saturate after 3M pretraining cells; the authors hypothesize larger model sizes could improve performance at 33M and beyond but leave larger model sizes to future work.
- Stated: future work plans larger-scale, more diverse pretraining including multi-omic, spatial omics, diseased conditions, perturbation and temporal data, broader biological validation, and in-context instruction learning.
- Evident: this is a bioRxiv preprint not certified by peer review; results are computational benchmarks, and the text does not report prospective wet-lab validation of predictions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
