Come this afternoon to checkout @HRneuro poster on how we are using deep mutational scanning to better understand key #autism risk genes. DM if your interested in discussing joining us @OHSUSOM #ASHG24 #ashgtrainees
#ASHG24 #ASHGtrainees Are you interested in #autism and how #mutations impact the development of the brain? Do you❤️ transcription factors and networks? Want to do all the #omics and live in the beautiful #pnw? DM me to discuss a #postdoc @OHSUSOM 🙏 RT.
