Hot off the press! We present CLUES2, a comprehensive method for selection coefficients that can incorporate ARGs, ancient DNA, changing selection through time, dominance, and more. academic.oup.com/mbe/article/do…

To be honest, a bit surprised this is a Nature Genetics paper.. but now I’m wondering what’s one supposed to do for East Asian imputations? They are easily the second largest group being GWAS’d, and still the worst group being imputed? nature.com/articles/s4158…

Beautiful GWAS of vertigo in Taiwanese population based on ~6200 cases and ~54k controls. Look at that impressive signal in chromosome 5 near DROSHA, which encodes a ribonuclease involved in miRNA synthesis. This locus was not found in a previous GWAS of vertigo in Europeans

Is anything done to correct for sample overlaps in 10M ppl GWAS with 23andMe? Inflation of polygenic risk scores caused by sample overlap and relatedness: Examples of a major risk of bias: The American Journal of Human Genetics cell.com/ajhg/fulltext/…

As a postdoc completing my 3rd year with no first-author papers yet, I'm working on this NIH RFI today rfi.grants.nih.gov/?s=6660cc1aa12… I'm especially against the 2 year window of eligibility for the K99/R00 application.

Technical details below, but using yesterday’s notation, the result is that one’s ASD to a random person will be lower than with one’s child (whose other parent is from a different population) only if b > 2w, a stronger requirement than the b > (3/2)w for yesterday’s measure

Fascinating results from a GWAS of neonatal jaundice in 30,000 trios. The strongest locus was the UGT1A* locus containing bilirubin conjugating enzymes, which is not surprising. But it appears that this locus is distinct from the one well known in adults. The authors write that

Interesting as all three of my kids were born with jaundice and always thought every kid is born more or less jaundice based on talking to older generation of ob who practiced in Asia.

I am stoked to announce that my first first-author preprint is out!! 🎉 doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… I started this work as an undergrad student in Diego Ortega-Del Vecchyo lab in collaboration with Mashaal Sohail and Emilia Huerta. Summary ⬇️
