Huge thanks to the thousands of #healthcare #staff who have joined @UKREACHStudy so rapidly! We know everyone is busy. The study is open to staff from all ethnic groups and not just ethnic minority staff. No invite received? Then you can sign up here: https://t.co/8s8tjTeXd7
The @UKREACHStudy is recruiting! We aim to understand the impact of #COVID19 on #healthcare #workers, particularly those from #ethnic #minority backgrounds. Invites to staff being sent now and over the next few days. Individuals can find out more here: https://t.co/9mthzcKMhh

The research being presented at #HDRUKcon20 is very impressive, especially given the speed at which it has been collated and produced.

In our eagerness to learn more about Covid-19 let's not ignore foundational principles of science such as the need for appropriate controls, a sample size sufficient to answer the question being addressed, and replication. When the stakes are high, these matter more than ever!

Our IPF genome-wide analysis is now available on @ATSBlueEditor journal website. In it we identify three new regions of the genome associated with IPF risk in the largest IPF GWAS to date! @BeaGuillenG @LouiseVwain @IPFdoc @LabCflores @megan_paynton

Thanks to all involved (researchers, clinicians, patients) but particularly @rjallen513 for pulling it all together!!
Wow! LARGEST EVER report of #PulmonaryFibrosis genetics is out (4124 IPF & 17,182 controls) confirms previously discovered genetic associations (#MUC5BRules) & finds new ones - Kudos @LouiseVwain and team!! #CureIPF #Genetics

Our index event bias paper is now published in @NatureComms (previously on bioRxiv). As well as Frank's method for adjusting for the bias we show the paradoxical association between MUC5B and survival after IPF diagnosis is explained by statistical bias.
