Happy to announce that it´s finally out: the first ever GWAS of autoimmune Addison’s disease. Great collaborative effort together with the K.G.J Center for Autoimmune Diseases/ Eystein Husebye, and Olle Kämpe nature.com/articles/s4146…

Out now, our latest and largest study of the genetic architecture of BMI in infancy and early childhood in 29K MoBa trios. We find 46 loci, imprinting effects and lots of age-dependent effects. Great collab betw. Bergen, FHI/Oslo, Bo Jacobsson/Gothenburg medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Impressive study from John Perry and colleagues!

Trial lecture - MSc. Ksenia Lavrichenko uib.no/en/ii/148463/t…

Great having a normal dissertation again. Brilliant performance Ksenia Lavrichenko, now a PhD, and great opponents in Anna Lindstrand and R Lyle! Thanks for great collaboration Inge Jonassen! uib.no/ii/149357/disp…

Interested in discovering how genetics in child, mother and father influence weight-development in early childhood? Opportunities to work with us and the amazing MoBa study: jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

Congratulations! Looking forward to new discoveries from this fantastic research environment!

All set up and ready to welcome over 190 delegates to Exeter. Looking forward to three days of talks and discussions on the genetics of diabetes (and hyperinsulinism!). The sun has even made an appearance for us. #SGGDExeter2024

Congrat to Marc Vaudel who today was awarded the Falch junior prize for his work! uib.no/med/169996/%C3…

Thanks for a splendid meeting in Exeter👏🏻😃 #sggdexeter2024 Next time 2026 in Bergen😀 #sggdbergen2026
