Really proud of this team effort with Brad Jermy, Kristi Läll & the rest of the INTERVENE team. nature.com/articles/s4146… We hope our framework will enable risk-based prevention and screening & bring polygenic scores into more precision medicine approaches.

I’m thrilled to share that our work from the VA Research is finally out in Science Magazine ! We dive deep into the genetic architecture of 2,068 traits using data from the VA Million Veteran Program, comprising 635,969 Veteran. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

INTERVENE biobank analysts are installing the PGS Catalog Calculator at diverse biobanks and trusted research environments across the globe. The Calculator reproducibly calculates polygenic scores (PGS) and allows reporting of relative risk information. PGS Catalog 👇

One more time for the people in the back: AI is a software wrapper around machine learning, machine learning is fancy words for statistics, thanks for coming to my TED talk

Wonderful first day of the Nordic Conference on Future Health! Honored to present data from Helseundersøkelsen i Trøndelag featuring work by my first MS student! Check out 2 v different projs on Alzheimer’s disease from more 🌟trainees at tomorrow’s poster session: Nora at #56 and Pieta at #97.
