In JMIR Publications: Researchers test 3 diff #MachineLearning facial phenotyping tools. One algorithm—D-Score—performed well, w/o biases based on ethnicity. Shows potential benefits & important precautions of using these algorithms for diagnosing rare disease. allof-us.org/3IUCj8l

It was great sitting down with Dr. Karriem Watson, Chief Engagement Officer for AllofUsResearch, to chat about the impact of the program, as well as how our family experiences led us to work in precision medicine. Watch below 👇

Just stumbled upon this mind-blowing fact: elephants boast around 17 copies of the TP53 gene, while we humans have just one! 🐘💡 Could this genetic abundance be the secret behind their remarkable resistance to cancer? Nature never ceases to amaze. #FunFact #GenomicWonders

In #JAMIA , researchers assess a large-language model (LLM) for both seizure outcome prediction accuracy & intrinsic bias across a variety of demographic groups. Great to see these considerations for #HealthDisparities while developing new LLMs. allof-us.org/4aA0Ye1

.AllofUsResearch is a huge and powerful resource for researchers studying women’s health! Our dataset includes health data from nearly 250K female participants, 73% of whom are from communities that are underrepresented in biomedical research. Check out the NOSI for more info ⬇️

The AllofUsResearch Program’s Journey Exhibit is back on the road for its 2024 tour! 🚌 This month it will be stopping in California, Ohio, and Texas, but this is just the beginning. Take a peek at allof-us.org/JourneyExhibit to see when we will be near you! #JoinAllofUs

In Science Magazine: researchers examine a rare, inherited deficiency in a pre-T cell receptor chain. The deficiency is crucial for T cell development in mice, but humans can survive into adulthood w/o clinical manifestations. Interesting - for mice & men! allof-us.org/3vzPKY5

No one throws a DNA Day party like National Human Genome Research Institute! Check out this year’s festivities at allof-us.org/4cMAJCU #DNADay24

Summer's coming, & while everyone's gearing up for blockbuster movies or jumping into the swimming pool, I'm diving into research publications! 📚🤓 Follow me on Twitter for regular posts showcasing the coolest findings & breakthroughs in health science. Let's geek out together!

📢 Calling all social scientists & public health researchers: SAS Studio is now available on the @AllofusResearch Researcher Workbench! For so many researchers who use programming languages other than R and Python, join us! Learn more about SAS: allof-us.org/SAS

Can we develop #PrecisionMedicine for Long COVID? Join us April 30 at 2pm ET for a panel on #LongCOVID , Disability + AllofUsResearch. Hear from patient advocates on the importance of inclusive health research to support people with Long COVID. Register: bit.ly/April30-Panel

Researchers in Cell Genomics ID 18 cell types and 12 gene programs, using CD4+ T cells from 953 individuals. Results provide insight into CD4+ T cell subpopulations involved in autoimmune disease. Exciting work! allof-us.org/4aDEVTX

Thanks to ResearchAmerica for inviting me to speak about AllofUsResearch & our program’s impact on health research. You can watch our full convo here allof-us.org/4cM8owJ. I’m passionate about our mission & excited about the program’s future. Sharing that w/ others is a joy!

In #JAMIA : Researchers use STRAFE, a #DeepLearning (DL) Transformer model, to predict clinical deterioration in patients w/ stage 3 chronic kidney disease based on #EHR data. Great use of DL to prioritize patient needs & improve health outcomes. allof-us.org/49iLAS8

You can still apply to the #NIHCommonFund ’s SysBio Initiative by 5/15, even if you missed the deadline to submit a letter of intent! Read the full #ROA to learn more about how the initiative will help integrate data sources from across the NIH (including AllofUsResearch!) 👇

A study using AllofUsResearch data shows how to step into a healthier life! The study found that hitting 8,200 steps daily is linked to a lower risk of depression, sleep apnea, acid reflux, high blood pressure, obesity, & diabetes. Read more: allof-us.org/3nuHjcj #NIH
