This is not gonna be an easy one. But this is what I wanna say right now. Look, the photographs say, this is what it's like. This is what war does. War tears, rends.War rips open, eviscerates.War scorches. War dismembers. War ruins. - ‘Regarding the Pain of Others’, Susan Sontag

Thank you AI HOUSE for letting me host such an amazing event! Can't wait to talk with Sasha Rush about his #AI #NLP research at Cornell Tech and Hugging Face. All donations go to Повернись живим!! #Ukraine️

Since the start of the war, I felt nothing I posted made sense as one thing mattered. But a lot has happened during this time. A lot of good, a lot of bad, and most importantly, a lot worth paying attention to and sharing it with.

The @ESCCongress by European Society of Cardiology is the pinnacle annual gathering for cardiologists and cardiovascular researchers. It's made all the more enriching when spent with amazing colleagues.

I am really proud to work with these people and learn from them! Highly recommended to read about the discovery of rare recessive genotypes in cardiomyopathies.

I flew all the way to the US to present about the burden of the premature ventricular complexes people with stable HF. It seems to be an association of PVCs with increased mortality. Thank you #AHA23 for nice discussions and Yigal Pinto for supervising the project.

Another highlight of the #AHA23 is participation in Council of Genomic and Precision medicine reception, where Connie Bezzina received an award for the significant contributions to the field of genomic and precision medicine. Congratulations!

Delighted to present this special issue of the Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research on “New Insights into the Genetics of Cardiomyopathies” - link.springer.com/journal/12265/… A brief thread to highlight the submitted articles:

Genes with recessively inherited pathogenic variants are increasingly important in cardiomyopathies. Based on our recent meta-analysis in Nature Cardiovascular Research nature.com/articles/s4416… – the first in a series of gene synopses, focusing on the proteostasis regulator BAG5 #recessiveCMgenes

In Orli Bahcall, our international team delivers a GWAS of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) - major cause of heart failure/transplant - led by Sean Jurgens, Joel Rämö, et al., with key leadership from Patrick Ellinor, Mark Daly, Connie Bezzina, and others. nature.com/articles/s4158…

PRS score of dilated cardiomyopathy cases vs controls stratified by rare variant status. Mean PRS of cases with rare variants is closer to controls compared to cases without rare variants. Nice demo of liability threshold hypothesis. Jurgens et al. Nat Gen

What is the role of common genetic variation in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) 🧬 and what causal pathways underlie the disease? 🫀 Happy to share our GWAS for DCM, published last week in Nature Genetics nature.com/articles/s4158… Amsterdam UMC Broad Institute A detailed 🧵below:
