New study combines MPRAs+RNAseq to functionally validate 94 rare nc variants from blood trait GWAS -> identification of 22 w/ direct regulatory effects. Great example of what can be done from association work to functional validation! 🔗 www.cell.com/cell-reports... (ft @mikeinouye.bsky.social et al)

Our latest work dissecting the interplay of endothelial and immune cells in non-communicable diseases genetics. We explained 815 loci (29% to 40%) and revealed the complex relationship between cell types and diseases. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... @nicolesoranzo.bsky.social @npirastu.bsky.social

I am very happy to finally share SAFE-LD, a method convert genotypes to an anonymised privacy-preserving version to be used to precisely compute LD. Led by @gdesanctis.bsky.social Claudia Gianbartolomei @sodbo.bsky.social and Davide bolognini. 📄: shorturl.at/BgXqq Github: shorturl.at/b49Wa

SAFE-LD: A novel method for the estimation of linkage disequilibrium from summary statistics

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have greatly advanced our understanding of the genetic architecture of complex traits. Downstream analyses of GWAS summary statistics require accurate in-sample ...

Extremely cool paper from @rjhfmstr.bsky.social @zkutalik.bsky.social and team. I still need to get my head around how the same genetic variant has opposite effects depending if it’s maternally or paternally inherited and why.

🚨 Our parent-of-origin study is out in Nature! 🧬 Maternal and paternal alleles can have distinct — even opposite — effects on human traits, revealing a hidden layer of genetic architecture that standard GWAS miss. 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Highlights below!

📢🚨 Excited to share our latest paper, "Phenome-wide investigation of dietary and health outcomes associated with bitter taste receptor gene #TAS2R38", online today in European Journal of Nutrition: 👉 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

A study out today has used our food liking GWAS to conclude that pizza liking is protective against T2D. I am now thorn between “oh look someone is using our results” and “oh no look what we have unleashed”

I have no affiliation with this summer school, but it’s really taught by some of the best, and it’s free!! Fair warning, it’s highly competitive & merit based (I was rejected way back when 🤣). Postdocs and PhD in stat gen should absolutely apply! lpshg.com

This is the wisest post in a bonkers thread about Base R vs tidyverse. No matter what stats program or flavor you want me to write in, I will produce inefficient code. You will not fix me by converting me to your standard, I will only make your standard look bad.

Malcolm 朝精 Barrett@malcolmbarrett.malco.io · 2y ago

Man this is some major BS. People write shitty code in every vernacular. I have seen more than my fair share in data.table and base, and Python, and everything else. The notion that there is more of it among tidyverse users is absurd. Can’t you just like a tool without hating on others?
