New preprint from the team 🎉 Thread from incredible postdoc alexandra geary who led this work below 👇 Thank you to all the team, collaborators, clinicians, and of course the Genomics England participants for making this happen. As always, feedback very welcome!

Feeling very proud to have worked with Yukun, Pearse, and the team on research like this over the past couple of years. The potential is enormous - UCL AI-Enabled Healthcare Systems CDT at UCL & Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is THE place to be for creating responsible, impactful AI with a focus on future patient benefit.

#RETFound demonstrated SOTA performance in various tasks across multiple subgroups using retinal images alone Great work by the team for laying foundations towards #OpenScience and #Oculomics. Model architecture and weights are available #OpenAccess! 🥂

Great job Chris Kelly! Going to use it for my NICU placement

Very pleased our manuscript is out today at Cell on the influence of autozygosity on common disease risk: doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… Thank you to the thoughtful reviewers that helped us improve our work! Check out the thread below for a summary of the main results

Very pleased to say that our work on autozygosity and complex disease in @EastLondonGenes UK Biobank and 23andMe Research (led by Daniel Malawsky) is now published in Cell Cell doi.org/10.1016/j.cell…. See Danny's thread with the main findings below.

Great paper by Daniel Malawsky, Hilary Martin and the team on the associations of consanguineous union with common diseases. Consanguinity (i.e., marrying close relatives e.g. cousin marriages) results in the passing of very similar genomes from father and mother to the offspring.

Congratulations Siegfried Wagner! 🥳🤩Speaking for the whole group when I say we are incredibly proud of the many feats you’ve achieved this year and excited for the way your work and #AlzEye will propel #oculomics ! A #risingstar indeed The Ophthalmologist 👏🏽

Many congratulations Siegfried Wagner! Very well deserved and thank you so much for all the wisdom imparted. Real stars bring lights to others and you have never stopped doing that. 🎉

MTF is excited to announce we will be delivering a talk as part of Ipswich Hospital's Basic and Laproscopic Surgical Skills Course. The event is free to attend and will be in person at Ipswich Hospital on October 13th. Hope to see you there!

Great lineup for the inaugural webinar from the Consortium for Vision and Oculomics in Psychiatry CVOP

Is anyone here using the UKBiobank 200k genomes dataset? We are having some weird issues and are trying to troubleshoot if data vs code 😬 Anyone else seeing anything odd? Either way, please share! 🧬

Our paper describing a way to infer the phase of rare variant pairs using gnomAD v2 is out now in Nature Genetics. We hope that the resource we generated will be useful when interpreting rare co-occurring variants in the context of recessive disease. nature.com/articles/s4158…

How should we evaluate #LLMs for downstream clinical use cases? In this npj Digital Medicine article, we propose a transition from static QA-style benchmarks to dynamic agent-based simulators, similar to methods used in biology, epidemiology & social sciences. nature.com/articles/s4174…

Congratulations to my student Teng Hiang on her first PhD preprint! It's about recessive associations in @GenesHealth , a cohort of >40k British South Asians. See her thread for an account and the paper here medrxiv.org/content/10.110….

Over the coming weeks, we will be introducing Prima Mente to the world. We kicked off today at NVIDIA GTC Paris highlighting two foundational collaborations: Nebius has become a core partner for our work to generate the world’s largest brain foundation models. Our goal

Over a year ago, a call with Ravi Solanki changed my life. Since then, I’ve watched how Prima Mente grow with speed, creativity, rigour, and relentless drive, pushing deep tech into clinical applications. It’s been inspiring to witness, and even better to be part of.
