We are accepting applications for our latest funding opportunity to promote #researchdiversity. To learn more about the funding strategy and program, register for our webinar on March 9 at 12pm. #healthequity #minorityhealth #healthdisparities bddy.me/3t0ahOO

New bioRxiv from Mary Makarious Mike A. Nalls & PDgenetics.org colleagues presents automated machine learning on multi-modal data from the michaeljfox.org #Parkinsons Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) study, identifying gene communities specific to PD biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Biomedical science should serve all people -- we're excited to have a push to represent human diversity in the Human Cell Atlas. chanzuckerberg.com/newsroom/czi-a…

As previously shown by Andrew and Mike A. Nalls this is how the same plot looks like for PD. Again pretty nice correlation, providing a solid foundation for more and larger GWAS!

T-2 days left to apply for michaeljfox.org's new DEI funding program! Don't miss this new opportunity!

New medRxiv manuscript from @HamptonLLeonard & PDgenetics.org colleagues demonstrates that the 5’ LRRK2 non-coding GWAS signal rs76904798 is independently associated with #Parkinsons risk from LRRK2 coding variation medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

A brief correspondence from the team at IPDGC Africa highlighting the 'International #Parkinsons Disease Genomics Consortium Africa', with special nod to the input from 2 international patient advocacy organisations: Parkinson’s Africa & PD Avengers thelancet.com/journals/laneu…

The DNA Biobank at the Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Neurológicas is near completion & today we celebrate virtually with our colleagues in Peru. This is such an important step to get us closer to global representation for #GP2Research!! Thanks to LARGE-PD and michaeljfox.org!

Check out this blog from Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s and #GP2 on típs and tricks for #GWAS and basic genetic data analysis. Nice accessible work and minimal tech jargon from @HamptonLLeonard @dan_vitale_ and Yeajin Song . parkinsonsroadmap.org/understanding-…

GP2 - Global Parkinson's Genetics Program - launching our master's program in Clinical Neurology for doctors from Africa Check out all the opportunities here parkinsonsroadmap.org/gp2/opportunit…

MJFF would like to wish our Founder, Michael J. Fox, a very happy birthday! Thanks to his continued dedication, we're closer than ever to a #Parkinsons cure. To help celebrate his decades of optimism, look back at some of our favorite archived quotes: bddy.me/3g9oN38

Today, MJFF announces our latest research opportunity. PPMI is expanding with a new online platform. Your participation could help researchers find better ways to measure, treat and potentially prevent Parkinson’s. Get started today: bddy.me/3rFzPRx

We are #hiring a leader to provide strategic direction for 23andMe’s Parkinson’s disease research program - PhD w/ >5 years of experience - Expertise with “Big Data” applied to neuroscience - Deep understanding of Parkinson’s disease research landscape 23andme.com/careers/jobs/5…

Andrew Singleton (Andrew), Director of the Center for Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias (CARD) and Chief of the Molecular Genetics Section (PDgenetics.org), will be taking over our twitter account tomorrow Nov. 16. Stay tuned! Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s

Are you researching #Parkinson's Disease? The 23andMe Research team is looking for collaborations with scientists who share our commitment to "end PD by preventing PD" Submit an application through Jan 14 2022 research.23andme.com/research-innov…
