Comparison of intergenerational instrumental variable analyses of body mass index and mortality in UK Biobank doi.org/10.1093/ije/dy…

Such a great cohort of MRC IEU PhD candidates, well done at #IGES22! Fernanda Morales, Ciarrah-Jane Barry, Helena Urquijo,Marina Vabistsevits, Andrei Constantinescu, Maddy Smith, Panagiota Pagoni, Genevieve Leyden. And Drs Nance and James Yarmolinsky

If you're interested in how weight loss alters gene expression to protect from colorectal cancer come see my poster at #ASHG! Poster PB1215 in the cancer posters session this afternoon

Breast tissue is particularly susceptible to exposures between menarche and first birth. If at #ASHG22 check my poster looking at the effects of body size during this life stage on breast cancer (PB3471) MRC IEU w/ george davey smith Amanda Hughes Tom Richardson @alexhavdahl et al.

If you're at #ASHG and interested in Mendelian randomization of maternal exposure on foetal outcomes come and see my work with @nm_davies Venexia Walker george davey smith Christy @alexhavdahl poster PB3446 😁

If you're interested in CVD drug targets, Mendelian randomization or aortic valve stenosis, come see poster PB1518! Would also love to chat with zebrafish or CRISPR people 🤗 #ASHG22
