Great to see this milestone study by @MDC_Neville and @R_Rahbari on postive selection in the male germline finally out. It sheds light on the origins of paternal age associated disorders. Great to have been involved in. See tweetorial here:.
Excited to share our new preprint in which we address:.(1) Accurate sequencing of sperm at scale.(2) Positive selection of spermatogenesis driver mutations across the exome.(3) Offspring disease risks from male reproductive aging.[1/15].
