Exciting times: Ich durfte bei RBB Radioeins ein paar Minuten über unsere Studie zum biologischen Alter des Gehirns in über 56.000 Teilnehmer:innen der UK Biobank sprechen. 👉 Interview: www.radioeins.de/programm/sen... 👉 Studie: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Largest multi-ancestry genomic study of Alzheimer’s disease led by @euffelmann.bsky.social and @daniposthu.bsky.social et al. — big leap forward for polygenic risk prediction and potential drug target discovery. Preprint: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our study on the genetics of brain age with >56,000 participants is out in Nature Aging — and here comes a more digestible Research Briefing with behind-the-paper insights and editor/expert reflections. 🧠 Direct link: www.nature.com/articles/s43... 🔓 Open link: rdcu.be/eJ95n

A project many years in the process, we’re pleased to present our work on multi-ancestry meta-analysis across a boatload of traits in the UK Biobank: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🧠 Why do some brains age faster than others? 🧬 Our new Nature Aging study of over 56,000 participants explores the genetics of the “brain age gap” — the difference between your brain’s biological and chronological age. nature.com/articles/s43587-025-00962-7 Thread below 👇

She gently reminded us that every primate — just like us — has their own personality, emotions, relationships, and individuality. Because of her, we see our place more clearly among the other beings we share this world with.

A while ago, when I was in my first semester teaching behavioral genetics, I was eager to discuss candidate gene controversies. I created an interactive funnel plot based on the meta-analysis by Karg et al. (2011), who reported strong evidence for an effect of 5-HTTLPR × stress on depression. 1/2

Fantastic work on Personality Genetics—absolutely love it! 🚀 Curious if applying SBayesRC with 7M variants could push polygenic score performance even further 🤔

Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025! Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide! #scienceforall #sciencenotsilence

🚨 This will become a curated list of awesome tools for complex trait genetics, **add yours**! it may become a review in which case those who contribute are invited as co-authors.

Incredibly proud to see our latest work out in Nature Genetics: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Here we share our FLAMES framework, which predicts the effector genes in GWAS loci with state-of-the-art precision🔥 Special thanks to @daniposthu.bsky.social A full thread describing findings below!

#OHBM2024 in Seoul was an unforgettable experience! Met brilliant minds, engaged in heated discussions, and partied with incredible people. ⬇️ Impressions from the conference and the city! 🏙️ Massive thanks to the USC team for the stunning drone footage of the ENIGMA rooftop party. vimeo.com/980726262
