We are all walking mosaics of genetically distinct cells.

Every cell acquires around one mutation each division after fertilization, resulting in a vast amount of genetic diversity across all the cells in our bodies by the time we are born.

Join us TOMORROW for an inspiring #RareDiseaseDay2024 #ScienceMatters seminar!

Hey #sciencetwitter - what are you all up to today?

🎆 Exciting research 🎆 BCMHouston BCM Department of Molecular and Human Genetics -- Dr. Ashok Balasubramanyam is researching why some diabetics don’t necessarily fit the box of type 1 and type 2 and what he’s discovered is there’s probably a wide range. 🧬 is key! click2houston.com/video/news/202…

Pls RT: Places are filling up for our #Bioinformatics #Hackathon BCM HGSC (Aug 30-Sept 1). Come join us to work with us on new exciting projects across the 3 days (somatic variants, graph approach, RNA, SV etc).
