Two new chapters from my free online book in human genetics out this weekend! These complete Part 3 of the book, on human population structure and history: 3.3: Human prehistory [separate thread] 3.4: Ancient DNA: a genetic time capsule [this thread] web.stanford.edu/group/pritchar…

Beyond stoked to share our latest, entitled “Diversified, miniaturized and ancestral parts for mammalian genome engineering and molecular recording” ! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The VESS organizing committee is looking for new members! If you are navigating the universe of variant effects and would like to get involved with Atlas of Variant Effects Alliance seminars, contact us!

First preprint from the lab 🚨 How can enhancers regulate target promoters across vast genomic distances, and what is the role of cohesin loop extrusion in the process? biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1)

Thinking about a PhD using computational power to answer pressing problems in biology and health? UC San Francisco Biological and Medical Informatics PhD program is recruiting for Fall 2025! Join our info session next Monday Oct 21: bmi.ucsf.edu/admissions.

This is happening tomorrow! Still some time to sign up! Both in-person and online opportunities! x.com/hjpimentel/sta…

New synthetic biology / gene regulation lab opening in Zurich! We’re studying how to control cell state transitions – for example, making diseased cells healthy or creating new cellular functions – using systematic perturbations, single-cell genomics and machine learning. 🧵1/4

Excited to share my PhD work in @Agnelsfeir’s lab describing a method to engineer mitochondrial DNA deletions in human cells and our exploration of how cellular metabolism and transcription respond to deletion heteroplasmy. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/19

Please re-tweet: We are hiring! Assistant Professor in statistical genetics. Also, hiring a postdoc. Reach out to hear more. Also, if you’ll be at #ASHG24 #ASHG2024, we could meet. careers.ashg.org/jobs/20762543/…
