Wow. "NIH" canceled my co-mentored (with Dave Sulzer) PhD student's F31 funding. His work is on understanding the genetics and neuroscience of language learning disorders. F31 provides no indirect $ to Columbia, just pays his salary. Not that it should matter, but he's an American citizen. W.T.F.

Very excited to share the first manuscript out of my PhD presenting our analysis into the genetic architecture of gene expression and splicing using blood RNA-seq of 4,732 blood donors from the INTERVAL study. (1/7)

📑📣 Gene misexpression is rare but can have major implications (dev diseases, limb malformations, cancers etc). When it does happen its associated with specific types of cis structural variants. This new paper identifies misexpressed genes & putative mechanisms. 👉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
