🚨New preprint out Mapping real-world statin adherence at population scale (doi.org/10.64898/202...) We analysed >1 million long-term statin users in Finland and Italy (Lombardy), identified adherence patterns, and examined baseline factors associated with declining adherence.
Longitudinal patterns and determinants of statin adherence in over one million individuals from Finland and Italy
Medication adherence is critical for effective management of chronic diseases and reducing healthcare burdens. Statins, commonly prescribed for cardiovascular disease prevention, require sustained, li...

🧬💥 Do the genetics that make you develop a disease also help you survive it? Not much. Our new study in Nature Genetics including 9 disease and 7 biobanks shows: • Susceptibility variants ≠ survival • PRSs for onset weak at predicting progression • Lifespan PRS predicts survival better
💥 New preprint & our first RCT! 💥 Does an extremely high or low BMI polygenic score influence weight loss after a diet intervention? GENEROOS is a 6-month randomized diet vs. control trial testing if genetic predisposition to higher BMI affects weight loss in overweight adults
🎉 New preprint out! "Removing genetic effects on plasma proteins enhances their utility as disease biomarkers" We show that adjusting plasma proteins for genetic effects can make them stronger predictors of disease 👉 doi.org/10.1101/2025...
Finally out!🤩 My first first-author publication is now online. We explored the molecular mechanism underlying the genetic correlation between #BMI and #brain morphology. @cbuunito.bsky.social journals.plos.org/plosgenetics... I want to sincerely thank all the co-authors:
Exploring the molecular basis of the genetic correlation between body mass index and brain morphological traits
Author summary Obesity is linked to many chronic diseases and its prevalence worldwide is increasing. Susceptibility to obesity is known to be due, to some degree, to genetic factors, and such genetic...
