These past six years I have had the immense privilege of studying under the people I most look up to in the discipline, who have made me, by every possible measure, a better scholar. I have so much gratitude.

📣 Latest from the lab: Performance of deep-learning-based approaches to improve polygenic scores www.nature.com/articles/s41... Its thought deep learning will substantially improve PGS but the reality is MANY have tried but no/little gain has been seen so far. Here we report our negative results.

I'm shocked, shocked!

First thesis chapter by Elli Cryan, co-advised with @jrossibarra.bsky.social. Beyond blurring my concept of barriers, my favorite ?coming from this is - How can a gene with a premature stop codon keep its coding sequence intact for a long time? Small RNA prodn maintain seqn? doi.org/10.1093/gene...

conferencia virtual “The Ghostly Presence of Race Science in Indigenous Genomics - El fantasma de la ciencia racial en la genómica” donde Emma Kowal hablará de la genomica indígena en el siglo XXI en el contexto Australiano.
