Do you want to help us restart the Genetic Analysis Workshop (GAW) series? Then fill out the form below! For an example of what past GAWs were like, see this article in Genetic Epidemiology, our society's official journal: doi.org/10.1002/gepi...

It was great seeing many of you at #ASHG25! Based on the discussions at our IGES meetup, we are considering reviving the Genetic Analysis Workshop (GAW) series. If you are possibly interested in helping out, fill out this form and we will get in touch: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Excited for #ASHG25 this week! Some of my and my colleagues' recent work is represented by a handful of posters here--check them out! ...

We are pleased to provide two great opportunities to connect with the IGES community during next week's #ASHG25 conference! 👇

I'm hiring a computational biologist interested in complex trait genetics using deep learning approaches. Reach out to me, if interested.

I'm often asked how human genetic data can be used to validate drug targets. In our new ‪@natcardiovascres.nature.com‬ paper, we provide an end-to-end framework for genetically validating IL-6 inhibition for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease outcomes 🧵

It was awesome to see the range of molecular & genetic epidemiology research being done in our department! Thank you @martinafu.bsky.social @danielpanyard.bsky.social and Javier Perez Garcia for making our Flash Talks a success 🤩

"Dark proteins." Also known as microproteins. There are thousands of them in our cells and we're still struggling to define their function. Succinctly reviewed @nature.com www.nature.com/articles/d41...

What do GWAS and rare variant burden tests discover, and why? Do these studies find the most IMPORTANT genes? If not, how DO they rank genes? Here we present a surprising result: these studies actually test for SPECIFICITY! A 🧵on what this means... (🧪🧬) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Dear early career genetic epidemiologists: The IGES Young Investigator Committee is looking for new members! It's a fun group, low time commitment, and great way to network with peers while supporting trainees around the world. Apply here by Dec 31st: www.geneticepi.org/yic_position...

As incoming chair of the young investigator committee of the International Genetic Epidemiology Society (IGES), I'd like to share a great opportunity for 5 Early Career Researchers to join the different IGES committees, deadline 31st Dec, details here: www.geneticepi.org/yic_position...
