Excited to have my 1st first author paper out in AJHG! 🤩 We explored the role of individual #CNVs and their burden in complex traits using UK Biobank and Estonian Biobank data. Summary of findings 👉🏻 tinyurl.com/5n8kpwva. Full text in #OpenAccess 👉🏻 doi.org/10.1016/j.ajhg….

Looking forward to hearing Ninon Mounier of University of Exeter & part of the GEMINI project, presenting work on 'Going from genetic correlation to causation in multimorbidity research using Mendelian randomization' at our multimorbidity community of practice meeting tomorrow at 10am!

🔔New pre-print out!!! With Chiara Auwerx Marie Sadler Alexandre Reymond and Zoltán Kutalik we combined eQTL, mQTL and GWAS data in a multi-omics Mendelian Randomization approach to identify metabolites mediating transcript-trait associations. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Post-doc position open in my group. Are you a curious, motivated scientist with good stats background? Would you like to develop creative causal inference methods next to Lake Geneva and surrounded by these mountains? Apply by 30 September! More details: wp.unil.ch/sgg/position-2…

Exciting news! We have been awarded an @MRC Better Methods Better Research grant to develop the The Triangulation WIthin a STudy (TWIST) framework for causal inference within pharmacogenetic research

🔊Next Multimorbidity Community of Practice is taking place taking place on Wednesday 22nd February 2023 at 10am! 🎉 (1/4)

🗣️11 talks and 12 posters by Exeter Med School colleagues at this weekend's European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG) 🧬 meeting in Glasgow Very excited for the science and networking... less so the 7.5hr train! 🚆 #ESHG #ESHG23 #ESHG2023 #genetics #science #health University of Exeter Faculty of Health & Life Sci

Multimorbidity is a common and complex clinical problem. At #ESHG2023? Come and speak to Ninon Mounier and Beth about how we are using genetics to understand the mechanisms linking long term chronic conditions Amazing work by GEMINI led by @timfrayling Exeter Med School European Society of Human Genetics (ESHG)
