Midway through the CSHL Symposium on AI in Biology and this far it's been a blast! Tomorrow I will be presenting our work on genomic foundation models for large-scale biomedical data analysis in poster session #3, 4:30 pm, poster #291. Come find me to connect and discuss :) #cshlsymp26

Identify. Attack. Resolve. The immune system follows a perfect defense program: ignore weak/self signals, attack true threats with force, then shut down to avoid damage. (1/2) www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

We are hiring a Research Software Engineer at @embl.org Heidelberg to enhance and maintain open-source infrastructure for spatial omics. 🔗 Deadline: 15/02/2026 embl.wd103.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/EMBL/d...

GWAS has been an incredible discovery tool for human genetics: it regularly identifies *causal* links from 1000s of SNPs to any given trait. But mechanistic interpretation is usually difficult. Our latest work on causal models for this is out yesterday: www.nature.com/articles/s41... A short🧵:

I'm teaching Statistical Rethinking again starting Jan 2026. This time with live lectures, divided into Beginner and Experienced sections. Will be a lot more work for me, but I hope much better for students. I will record lectures & all will be found at this link: github.com/rmcelreath/s...

Hiring Senior Computational Postdoc to lead large-scale scRNAseq analysis for Project JAGUAR, one of the world’s most comprehensive single-cell immune resources from Latin American ancestries. If big data, global partnerships, human diversity and immune regulation excite you, apply! bit.ly/3XyFWrW

‘Genetic Risk Effects on Psychiatric Disorders Act in Sets’, the title of our new preprint on @medrxivpreprint.bsky.social! This huge collaborative effort advances our understanding of psychiatric genetic architecture and emphasizes the importance of looking beyond additive effects. 🧵1/n; 🧪👩🏽‍🔬🧬

After an immensely enriching and rewarding PhD in @caina89.bsky.social lab at @pioneercampus.bsky.social, I am excited to announce that I moved to beautiful Copenhagen for my postdoc in Simon Rasmussen's group @cbmr.science!

Postdoc opportunity! At National Genomics Infrastructure in Uppsala we're looking for a postdoc in genomics R&D. Cutting-edge methods dev in an excellent, international environment at the junction between academia and infrastructure. Deadline May 23! www.uu.se/en/about-uu/...

Very happy to share *two* new projects from my group now on @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social on mtDNA variation effects on tissue-specific gene expression conducted using RNAseq data in 49 tissues in the GTEx project! 🧵 1/n

After 4 fantastic years of research, together with @caina89.bsky.social & Matthias Heinig, I’m thrilled to share the first tissue specific map of apparent mtDNA heteroplasmy in humans and their relationships with donor age and mtDNA gene expr across 49 tissues! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
