Modern setting for Greek Mythology, Jeff Goldblum as Zeus, AND an ep with Les Fluers by Minnie Ripperton!? Kaos is such a fun show

I am stoked to announce that my first first-author preprint is out!! 🎉 doi.org/10.1101/2024.0… I started this work as an undergrad student in Diego Ortega-Del Vecchyo lab in collaboration with Mashaal Sohail and Emilia Huerta. Summary ⬇️

📢Our new paper is out! We show that gene regulation in breastmilk is controlled by maternal genetics, and impacts the composition of the infant gut microbiome cell.com/cell-genomics/… Work by Kelsey Johnson, in collab w/Frank Albert Ellen Demerath and many others

🤯Absolutely manic dive into fosse's psyche. Just abject fear and ego.

I wrote about the paucity of genetic evidence for very recent selective sweeps and the generally odd and sporadic nature of the ones we do see. A 🧵:

When u are 12yo and ur parents let u online

To the two "ew" voters: I will find you and expose your hateful beliefs

Why would one use D' over R/R sq? If D is a measure of covariance, by definition, why is the normalization procedure for D' more sensible compared with standard correlation

This is good, y’all. Give it a listen. (Also, Ben is a pundit now.)

Excited that CREME (Cis-Regulatory Element Model Explanations) is published in Nature Genetics! Work led by ShToneyan! tl;dr CREME interprets rules of gene regulation learned by genomic deep learning models using carefully designed in silico perturbations. rdcu.be/dT3kq

We are pleased to present our latest publication in Nature Genetics investigating the functional basis behind the #genetic risk variants in #colorectalcancer (CRC) nature.com/articles/s4158… #cancer #bowelcancer 🧵 1/

Really interesting new paper from Akbari et al. identifying a lot more selection in ancient DNA than previous approaches. I think it gets at three core challenges for this type of analysis where our understanding is still limited. 🧵

Who do I have to bribe to get Weibull into ExpFam?

The Goldberg lab is moving to UCLA Human Genetics summer 2025! Excited for new opportunities and collaborations. We will be recruiting at all levels to work on the evolutionary and population genetics of humans, our primate relatives, and the malaria parasites we share.
