Sebastian May-Wilson presented the work of the genCOST consortium at the plenary session at #ASHG24. this is the largest study comprehensively linking genetic variation to healthcare cost. ❤️health-economics

Had an absolute blast at #ASHG24 this year. Met some incredible people and have had a lot of interesting discussions about #GenCost, #PathWAS and other cool science! Also delighted that my talk on Friday seems to have garnered a positive response!

Hazard ratio=0.07❗️ That's the ridiculous effect of tirzepatide (dual GIP/GLP1r agonist) on the 3-year incidence of diabetes among patients with obesity It's the kind of massive effect you expect for vaccines, not chronic disease prevention. nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Just out in Nature Human Behaviour 👇🏼👇🏼 We focused on the causes & impact of self-report error in the UK Biobank. We found that reporting error does not occur at random, is not independent of other participation behaviours, and can complicate the interpretation of genome-wide findings

How do you make sense of single cell multi-modal data beyond clustering? We need better methods that incorporate biological principles! Check out our latest method MIDAA, deep learning for single-cell multiomics with evolutionary principles: genomebiology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
