The fifth paper from the group this year. Led by a former postdoc Ying-Chu LO, our evaluation of polygenic scores (PGS) for BMI and T2D for Native Hawaiians is published in Communications Biology! nature.com/articles/s4200…
Our new paper is out in Science Magazine! By exploring the rich genetic diversity of Brazil, we show how fine-scale genomic analyses reveal that this diversity, rooted in Indigenous ancestry and centuries of complex demographic history, plays a key role in population health.
Happy to share a PhD opportunity in my new lab at University of Zurich ! Application deadline: June 30. Please retweet and do not hesitate to contact me for any questions
Ancient #DNA reveals #Papua New Guinea's genetic past. Study NatureEcoEvo by an intl. team led by Kathrin Nägele MPI-EVA Leipzig shows the significance of regional dispersals and local interactions in coastal Papua New Guinea. tinyurl.com/2s3sc6ad & nature.com/articles/s4155…
Happy to share that our work from the Nicholas Mancuso lab is out in Nature Genetics! We developed SuShiE, a multiancestry fine-mapping method for molecular traits. doi.org/10.1038/s41588…
Given two genomes, can you tell who’s taller or more prone to a disease? How confident can you be? A fresh take on phenotypic inference, now out in Nature Communications : rdcu.be/exW4f See thread🧵👇:
Our method for posterior sampling of Ancestral Recombination Graph, SINGER, is now published at Nature Genetics: nature.com/articles/s4158…. Come and check it out! Here is our previous Twitter thread with detailed explanations of the work.
Some new exciting metabolomic work from Nightingale Health using UK Biobank data 🔽 Metabolomic data for the full UK Biobank cohort will be made available to all researchers as part of our upcoming data release next month. nature.com/articles/s4158…
