Thrilled to share our latest work! We have generalized the SMR&HEIDI approach to a multi-omics model, which links ~50% GWAS loci to 7 types of molecular phenotypes genetically.

1/10 Large eQTL resources enable identification of genes for which cis-eQTL effects colocalize with GWAS hits. We are happy to announce that our MetaBrain study and eQTL resource is now out at Nature Genetics (nature.com/articles/s41588-0…).

We are recruiting a postdoc in the Program for Complex Trait Genomics in the University of Queensland to work on developing methods to understand trait genetic architecture across human populations. Join us at the beautiful east coast of Australia! uq.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/uqc…

How does #DNA #methylation differ between cell types?
Hannon et al show that for a subset of sites, variation detected in whole #blood can be attributed to a specific blood cell type, helping interpretation of #EWAS

Okay can we change the self-critical narrative that folx with PhDs "only know a lot about one thing" and therefore are worthless?
like how about "I am profoundly in love with learning and I let my intuition guide me to this ONE topic that brings me joy" idk idk

I sacrificed my mental health for the first three years of my PhD program and I will never do so again. Self-care is more valuable than ANY task in grad school. NEVER AGAIN.
