Hey #geneticstwitter #epitwitter #cardiotwitter - Zhi Yu + I and looking to jointly hire a computational associate focused on genetic 🧬 epi! This is a super fun, collaborative group spanning Mass General Heart Clinical & Translational Epidemiology Unit - MGH Broad Institute More info here: zhiyu7.github.io/openings/

We then observed that the penetrance of this variant is influenced by the T2D PRS. Carriers of the variant + highest tertile of the PRS had similar odds ratio (OR~18) as carriers of confirmed pathogenic variants while carriers with low PRS showed OR ~2.6

Why should I get a #genetic testing for my #HCM patient? Well, the question should be "why not?" Great talk by Anjali Owens It is useful for family screening, #phenocopies identification, potentially choose appropriate treatment and even as a prognostic tool #HCMSummit8

Missing the fall flavours and festivities of beautiful Cambridge & Boston, MA. Tried my hand at some holiday baking 🎃😋

Gestational 🤰 diabetes is associated w/ long-term 🫀 disease risk, but is GDM *causal* for CVD? A new analysis using 🧬 suggests the answer is no - rather, GDM & CVD likely share upstream risk pathways.

🧬 This Genetic Counsellor Awareness Day, we celebrate and acknowledge the dedication and compassion of genetic counsellors across Australasia. Thank you for your invaluable support! #ThankYouGCs #GCAwarenessDay #ANZGeneticCounsellors

Forthcoming guidance will recommend labs report VUS subclasses. We share experience of 4 labs including rates of reclassification of VUS subclasses. By highlighting VUS-high and downplaying VUS-low, this will be game-changing for dx genetic testing. buff.ly/3Cpx5RL

About 1 in 500 people in the U.S. are living with HCM. It’s the most common inherited heart disease & many people are unaware. AHA has launched an initiative to improve systems of care. bit.ly/41pmwbM #hcm #aha100 #cardiotwitter

Our study led by Kaavya Paruchuri Mass General Heart using an EPIC-integrated clinician dashboard 💻 + smartphone app📱 onboarded upon HF hospitalization discharge 🏥 to improve HF management out in Journal of Cardiac Failure. So proud of our versatile team @MGH_RI continually forging into new areas

We are excited to share our latest work, "Genetic Predisposition to Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Incident Type 2 Diabetes," now published in JAMA Cardiology, led by the brilliant undergrad Akshaya Ravi! 🎉 jamanetwork.com/journals/jamac…

Delighted to share our study by Sarah Urbut with Akl Fahed on adding in a CAD polygenic risk score to clinical factors to boost CAD risk prediction, particularly for recovering premature CAD events ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… Circulation: Genomic and Precision Medicine

New paper in Circulation: Genomic and Precision Medicine: Traditional models assume genetic risk is constant, but Pradeep Natarajan & team including Sarah Urbut show CAD risk is dynamic. Genomic & clinical factors interact differently across life stages. @cgm_mgh MGH Cardiovascular Research Center @mghcvfellows loom.ly/D6zv7IM
