Interesting new findings regarding a potential APOL1-HLA interaction from a national unexplained kidney failure cohort:
As always thanks to @RenalGenomics @drmelaniechan @GTDoctor @DannyGale_1 and others for your support, @The_MRC for funding the work, and to the patients and families who have taken part in #100GKP @GenomicsEngland. Link to the pre-print below: https://t.co/HX9STEWymc

Quantifying the effect sizes across the spectrum of variants in cystic kidney disease is out today: https://t.co/wSnkvF8nNS Full thread discussing results below: https://t.co/O7XxXg0rZT Great work again @OAlavijeh, supported by @The_MRC @PKDCharity @GenomicsEngland #pkd #adpkd
Cystic kidney disease (#cykd) encompasses #ADPKD #PKD #ARPKD and others. What can we learn about them using national-scale #wgs? In this 🧵we explore our latest preprint from @RenalGenomics: https://t.co/jvwlwkmWaa

Exciting work! Do go and see it if you want to learn more about an unbiased genome wide approach to rare disease analysis.
Hyped for my first non-renal specific genetics conference @eshgsociety #eshg2024! Come see our @RenalGenomics groups work #pkd on Monday!

"Bench to bedside" - a term I bandied about as an academic medic, but thanks to this amazing scheme I've had an opportunity to really understand what this means and how porosity between clinical practice, academia and industry is vital to realising this. Long may it continue!
Through our collaboration with @The_MRC we’ve jointly-funded a group of clinical fellows on one-year placement opportunities within our BioPharmaceuticals R&D business. Click here to find out more: https://t.co/Xrl9WkcRqK

Excellent focused orals session on genetics in kidney disease. Bendroflumethiazide, Metformin and beetroot juice all coming to a clinic near you??? #ERA24

Cross sectional analysis of @RenalRadar data shows children with rare kidney diseases (across all ethnicities studied) disproportionately live in more deprived areas: evidence of socioeconomic impact of childhood rare kidney diseases on whole families

The complexe genetic of CAKUT by @drmelaniechan #ERA24. Using the 100 000 🧬 project : 4% of diagnosis, mostly HNF1b Looking for rare variant compared to control : negative Some answer in polygenic score such as in PUV CAKUT remain a mysterious genetic story !

Fantastic work @drmelaniechan - I can’t wait to see you answer these mysteries over the next few years!
