Excited to share our latest manuscript on complex trait fine-mapping across diverse populations! This is a collaborative effort across BioBank Japan FinnGen and UK Biobank with mentorship from Hilary Finucane Mark Daly YukinoriOkada. Here is 🧵 1/n medrxiv.org/content/10.110…


Pleased to share our latest preprint. We extended the SuSiE model originally developed by the Matthew Stephens Lab to a cross-population fine-mapping method. Led by the talented Kai Yuan with Hailiang Huang Ryan Longchamps Antonio F. Pardiñas + many others. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Any paper coauthored by Broad Institute’s Raymond Walters is an instant classic. You could probably assemble an entire genetics curriculum from the supplements of his papers. [A previous version of this tweet incorrectly spelled his last name like the newest Nature journal…]
