Research Scientist with @tuuliel_lab @scilifelab
Joined August 2015
Many thanks to all collaborators and especially my coauthors Aaron, @Pejminister and our great PI @tuuliel! Tuuli recently got funded as a Wallenberg Scholar, so it is safe to say that we are looking for more colleagues in our Swedish-American lab. 4/4

Ranking genes by "recalibrated" fold changes enriches results for biological processes related to metabolic and regulatory activity, while simultaneously serving as correction against highly variable genes.

Here, we introduce a new concept of how to view fold changes that are the result of an RNA-Seq differential expression study. Building upon prior work from the lab lead by @Pejminister, we use the genetic population variance in expression (V^G) to adjust expression fold changes.

Very happy to share our latest work from my postdoc with @tuuliel_lab on recalibrating gene expression changes relative to natural dosage variance:

Differential expression (DE) analysis is a widely used method for identifying genes that are functionally relevant for an observed phenotype or biological response. However, typical DE analysis...

Folks at #BoG23 and others - I'm recruiting postdocs to my Stockholm and New York teams. Reach out if interested - experimental or computational opportunities in gene expression dosage (talk #39), GWAS+CRISPR+molQTLs, developmental GTEx, etc. https://t.co/IGJtJWrLB8

Philipp Rentzsch #GRD23: Many diseases are caused by changes in gene dosage. Genes have varying levels of gene expression in the population. V^G is a metric of dosage variation (introduced here: https://t.co/SFbZgQOIQF) Now found that haploinsufficient genes have smaller V^G.

Transcriptome data can facilitate the interpretation of the effects of rare genetic variants. Here, we introduce ANEVA (analysis of expression variation) to quantify genetic variation in gene dosage...

Science media: still tweeting about a terribly designed, underpowered study a week later because it has cool photos and gets clicks. Also science media: what drives scientists to publish studies that don’t replicate???

New tracks are available for human assemblies, hg19 and hg38. The new tracks show Combined Annotation Dependent Depletion (CADD) scores for each base in the genome and correspond to the v1.6 developmental release. Read more about the release at: https://t.co/pgttUAzTSO

#ESHG2020 talks need to be played at x1.1 speed (some even x1.5) so that speakers do not go over time. Sessions going over time occupy rooms that can not be used by the next session. #virtualconferenceproblems
