Our study discovering population-specific low-frequency variants in novel genes associated with Type 2 Diabetes in Qatar published this week PLOS One bit.ly/2xelakB

Has anyone ever done a ranking of academic journals by review turnaround time? I'm looking for a good genomics journal with a < 1 month publication timeline. Last review for my paper took over 2 months, not happy about that

I’m in Qatar at #WISH2018 to launch QChip, a precision medicine tech we designed to assess 500k genome variants in the Qatari population of most relevance to health Qatar Genome Program | برنامج قطر جينوم @Qatar_Biobank مؤسسة حمد الطبية WeillCornellQatar Weill Cornell Medicine @RUCDR Sidra Medicine Affymetrix, Inc.

Friends and colleagues, if you are in Houston on Monday in advance of ASHG , I hope to see you at the Founder Population Symposium, register at bit.ly/2MedHcT I will be giving a talk titled "Human Evolution, Risk Alleles, and Genomic Medicine in Qatar"

We’re proud to help @NYGOV & State of New YorkCuomo fight #COVID19 in a variety of ways, including thru our #RegeneronIOPS team making & donating Viral Transport Media for testing kits

Published online today in NPJ Genomic Medicine, our report on QChip, an innovative technology for low-cost genetic disease screening in Middle Eastern populations. Original article: go.nature.com/3KnhXUH Story by Weill Cornell Medicine newsroom: bit.ly/3qH7YS9

Thank you AllofUsResearch for a new perspective on my roots. Looking forward to higher resolution of my MENA ancestry

Published in Nature Communications this week our discovery of a genetic variant in NOTCH3 associated with a 3x increased risk of stroke and excess brain white matter loss. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Discover our latest research in Nature Communications on the genetic factors of stroke in South Asians. To expand our limited knowledge of this population, we conducted the largest exome-wide association study (ExWAS) of stroke to date in a discovery cohort of 31K Pakistanis.

In a study led by my colleague Dr Rostami at Weill Cornell, we demonstrated the impact of genomics in critical ICU care. Nine out of ten ICU patients have genetic mutations that can affect the metabolism of medicines commonly prescribed in the ICU. tinyurl.com/yfn46uy7
