New paper out! #Genetic differences may influence the risk of infection with the highly transmissible #Omicron variant, and the patterns differ from earlier coronavirus variants. 🧬 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

📣 🧬🦠 New article out on genetic susceptibility to infection with Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2. In this international GWAS meta-analysis, we identified loci not found for earlier variants of the virus. The findings point to a central role of glycosylation. 👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very excited to finally see this important #GWAS on #LongCOVID #PostCOVID out in @natgenet.nature.com !!! Wonderful team effort and way to see this through, Vilma, Tomoko, Sam, Hugo and Hanna !! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I didn't have much hope that we'd find genetic determinants of long-COVID, but after years of work, Vilma Aho, Tomoko Nakanisha, Hugo Zeberg and Hanna Ollila made it happen! (Among a few others :-)) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excited to share our new paper on genetics of Long Covid led by Vilma Lammi, Tomoko Nakanishi and Samuel Jones. Read more at www.nature.com/articles/s41... @fimm-uh.bsky.social @helsinki.fi

Hanna Ollilan @hannaollila.bsky.social ja Vilma Lammin @helsinki.fi johtaman tutkimuksen tulokset on julkaistu Nature Genetics -tiedelehdessä. Onnittelut! Linkki alkuperäiseen julkaisuun: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Big congratulations to Dr. Tommi Strausz on a successful PhD defense on #sleep #bruxism! A pleasure to supervise such a thoughtful scientist — excited to see what’s next! @helsinki.fi @fimm-uh.bsky.social #PhDDefense #SleepResearch #genetics #ProudSupervisor

Excited about the defense tomorrow. Tommi Strausz on sleep bruxism

Finally online - sharing our findings that #Lyme disease bacteria can live in female reproductive organs for over a year and increase risk for gynecological disease!!! We found this increased risk in mice and humans! 😱 (thread below) www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...
