Plasma #proteomics improves classification of #InsulinSensitivity over routine clinical variables. A population study performed in the #RISC and #ULSAM cohorts led by Daniela Zanetti and Tim L. Assimes, MD PhD #StanfordUniversity tinyurl.com/4jucrbj5 🔓



A great day for CAD polygenic scores and, by extension, all scores. Grateful for collab with Aniruddh Patel & Amit V. Khera, and for the contribution of US #Veterans in the #MillionVeteranProgram. Let's now fully invest in the infrastructure that brings all scores to the clinic.


Our latest work on plasma proteomics using the proximity extension assay in collaboration with the SCALLOP consortium Anders Malarstig . Led by former lab Sarnoff Foundation fellow, Corinne Carland, and Grace Png. Co-supervised with Daniela Zanetti .

Shoa L. Clarke thank you, could not summarized the scientific journey any better, but I will add, there’s more to come, so for those of you interested in this space…stay tuned!








I’m thrilled to share that our work from the VA Research is finally out in Science Magazine ! We dive deep into the genetic architecture of 2,068 traits using data from the VA Million Veteran Program, comprising 635,969 Veteran. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…



New Million Veteran Program research out in #EJPC European Society of Cardiology Journals! We use 🧬 to examine the relationship between Lipoprotein(a), LDL-C, and coronary plaque severity across the spectrum of disease. academic.oup.com/eurjpc/advance…


The Million Veteran Program is the Veterans Affairs' gift that keeps on giving...critical clues to the etiology and treatment of coronary disease, the #1 cause of death worldwide. Thank you U.S. Veterans and program leadership for making this possible. Let's keep it going!

A healthy lifestyle free of smoking and full of aerobic activity not only reduces the overall risk of heart disease but also the chances of dying from your first event, should you have one. Project led by my gifted mentee Estella ML Chen
