African genomics to the world, great collaboration with AfricanSocHumGenet

Happy to have been part of the fantastic 200 scientists who made this possible...Many thanks to Paul Franks for the outstanding leadership and unique collaborative spirit. Indeed, tremendous and impactful science is a team sport.

Delighted to see this out today, coinciding with the #EASD2023 Precision Medicine in Diabetes Session A massive effort from >200 scientists to define gaps and opportunities for the clinical translation of precision diabetes medicine nature.com/articles/s4159… Key takeaways below:

Greetings from the PRIMED Consortium PRIMED Consortium meeting in Arlington, VA!

When I started working on #CRISPR to fight heart disease >10 years ago, I never imagined it might lead to cures for rare inborn errors of metabolism. Here’s how it’s happening! Presented/published today #ASHG23 #ASHG2023 ASHG plenary + AJHG + Human Genetics and Genomics Advances 🧵

Diabetes will increase the most in LMICs. 145% increase by 2030 in Africa. 67% of people in Africa are living with diabetes without knowing. Treatment coverage is less than 10% in LMICs. How can medicine be made more accessible and precise (accurate) #WorldDiabetesDay

Great work Paul O'Reilly and team🥳🥳
