Detection of distant familial relatedness in biobanks for identification of undiagnosed carriers of a Mendelian disease variant: application to Long QT Syndrome medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #medRxiv

The best way I can imagine to end a week: a tweet from Eimear Kenny complimenting our work leveraging patterns of relatedness to find rare variant carriers and understand their effects! ❤️

The study aimed identify clinically relevant conditions that co-occur with developmental language disorder at the population level & found both rare and common comorbidities. Reyna L Gordon Jennifer “Piper” Below

I lectured for 90 min in front of 80ish people and attended a full days worth of meetings without ever realizing my shirt was inside out. I believe I have achieved a new level of professoring. Thanks to my insanely kind, wonderful, and patient husband for so gently informing me.

Woohoo! Congratulations Hung-Hsin! This is such a great project; thanks for recognizing his amazing work with this award IGES Vanderbilt Genetics Institute #IGES22

Fabulous work Hung-Hsin! So proud of you! #IGES22 Vanderbilt Genetics Institute

Thanks for opportunity to reflect on the time I spent working on this platform, and the future of online science communication.

Dillon has worked with mentor Dr. Robin Jones & collaborators Jennifer “Piper” Below, Doug Shaw, & Hannah Polikowsky to publish multiple papers leveraging electronic health records and DNA biobanks to better understanding developmental stuttering. Check out his recent pubs, linked below ⬇️
