Thrilled to share my first paper from my PhD, advised by Jonathan Pritchard and in close collaboration with my co-first author Shaila Musharoff, on testing for differences in causal variant effect sizes across populations. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/9)

Killer T cells are beautiful! This high resolution/rapid acquisition video of a T cell attacking a lymphoma cancer cell was captured on a specialized Lattice Light Sheet microscope with the help of my wonderful collaborators HHMI | Janelia. See more details in the thread below.

New preprint! In collaboration w/ Christina Curtis and David Van Valen, Alex Sockell & Wing Hing Wong developed a simple microfluidic platform for high-throughput growth, phenotyping, & retrieval of single organoids! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Sarafan ChEM-H @StanfordBioE Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network (1/5)

Cancer is complex and diverse, with varying molecular profiles & treatment responses. We showed germline variants with little to no functional genic effect, in aggregate, may sculpt #breastcancer subtypes & disease aggression by mediating immune response🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We're excited to announce that the 2nd annual Spatial Biology Workshop will be taking place August 28th-30th at Stanford. The workshop will cover new techniques and tools for generating and analyzing spatial data, as well as new biology discovered using spatial methods.

thrilled to share Rachel Ungar's and my paper on our genetics + ethics course! still shocked, awed, and incredibly grateful that our little idea grew into a full-fledged course and accompanying paper cell.com/cell-genomics/…

HLA is the locus that everyone loves to hate, so it rarely gets invited to the GWAS party... There’s good reason for this. The region has extensive LD, high gene density and high polymorphism. (Thread + preprint link below ⬇️) (1/8)
