Exciting to see this come out and I’m honored to have been a part of this amazing work led by James Diao!

🧵 1/ What’s at stake with race-based equations for lung function? Clinical, occupational, and financial reclassifications for millions of patients.

I’m delighted to share this labor of love, published today in NEJM and unveiled at #ATS2024 .

Alicia Martin and Yixuan He from Broad Institute and CGM at MGH highlight the need for more diverse biobanks in social genomics in their Nature Human Behavior commentary (nature.com/articles/s4156…)

Great work by star resident Otilia Ciobanu & team! Yixuan He Alicia Martin Jill Remick Jay Shelton Tony Eng Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University MD Anderson Cancer Center

Overjoyed to be joining the Brigham and Women's Medicine Residents family next year!

I'm eternally grateful to my family, life partner @gloriajwu, and longtime mentor Arjun (Raj) Manrai, always my greatest supporters. We matched!! 🥳🎉🥂

Looking for some light science reading for the end of the year? Talented postdoc, Yixuan He, led a short commentary on the needs for more diverse biobanks in social genomics and some steps to get there: nature.com/articles/s4156…

Shared exposure liability of type 2 diabetes and other chronic conditions in the UK Biobank pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35348899/. Congrats to Yixuan He, recent Bioinformatics and Integrative Genomics (BIG) graduate

couldn't have done it without the best mentor and lab mates!!!

It is difficult to distinguish signal from noise when mapping the #exposome onto human phenotype. The amazing Ming Kei (Jake) Chung in my group pens a piece in Environmental Health Perspectives on emerging bioassays to move from correlation to biology. cc NIEHS ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/EH…
