Congrats Yang Eric Li !!

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Center for Translational Bioinformatics. The center aims to accelerate translational research that can improve patient care by integrating comprehensive patient data and expansive genomic datasets. medicine.wustl.edu/news/washu-med…

Closing out the 2023-2024 WashU Medicine Department of Genetics Department Seminar Series with a big THANK YOU to all of our speakers for helping to make it a success! Our overall attendance was up this year. Here’s the trailer for viewing, one last time 👏:

I’m so thrilled to be named as St. Baldrick’s Scholar! Excited to embark on this new adventure and contribute to the pediatric neuro-oncology field! 🌟🧠St. Baldrick's Foundation Washington University Neurosurgery The Brain Tumor Center WashU Medicine Department of Genetics

I am tremendously honored to join this amazing cohort of St. Baldrick's Foundation Scholars! 👨‍🏫 I am incredibly fortunate to work with incredible colleagues The Brain Tumor Center Washington University Neurosurgery WashU Medicine Department of Genetics and can’t wait to advance our understanding of pediatric brain tumors!

Thank you to NICHD News for funding our R03 grant! Enthusiastic to apply our computational methods to generate a comprehensive #nuclear & #mitochondrial #genome de novo variant callset for Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program! #genomics kidsfirstdrc.org

The Washington University Department of Genetics is recruiting investigators at all academic levels. Individuals with research programs in any area of genetics/genomics are encouraged to apply. 1/2

So excited for the new WashU look!

Many thanks to our organizers Tychele Turner, Tristan Qingyun Li and administrative staff!

Join WashU Genetics for our first seminar this fall on Sept. 5 @ 3pm CST in Connor Auditorium when Dr. Adam Wende, presents (in-person only) “Metabolic signaling in transcriptional control of heart failure”, hosted by Dr. Peter Jin!

Our paper about TE's regulatory functions using ENCODE data has been published! nature.com/articles/s4146… Ting Wang Cedric🧬➰🧬Feschotte We confirmed TEs contributed 25% of regulatory elements in the human genome. We also investigated how different TEs contributed differently. /1

My last PhD project on epigenetic-treatment-induced novel antigens in glioblastoma is out. It was a privilege to work with the co-first authors, joshhjang, Nakul Shah, and Yonghao Liang, and mentors, Albert H. Kim and Ting Wang. Please read for more: nature.com/articles/s4158….

Today is the Five Year Anniversary of TNTurnerLab WashU Medicine Department of Genetics where we focus on Precision Genomics. #Statistics!
