Super excited to share my first grad school paper! It was so much fun working on this collaborative project from day one as a rotation student in the Curtis lab! Such a joy to work on with Katie, @LiseMangiante, @CrisISotomayor, @cncurtis and @caswell_jin & thanks to the lab!
The Curtis Lab’s latest study on the genomic architecture of breast cancer from the pre-invasive to metastatic setting is now out in Nature!

HLA is the locus that everyone loves to hate, so it rarely gets invited to the GWAS party... There’s good reason for this. The region has extensive LD, high gene density and high polymorphism. (Thread + preprint link below ⬇️) (1/8)

Cancer is complex and diverse, with varying molecular profiles & treatment responses. We showed germline variants with little to no functional genic effect, in aggregate, may sculpt #breastcancer subtypes & disease aggression by mediating immune response🧵 https://t.co/FApQFdE4mf

Cancer represents a broad spectrum of molecularly and morphologically diverse diseases. Individuals with the same clinical diagnosis can have tumors with drastically different molecular profiles and...

Thrilled to share my first paper from my PhD, advised by @jkpritch and in close collaboration with my co-first author @shailamusharoff, on testing for differences in causal variant effect sizes across populations. https://t.co/1Smhr09IiA (1/9)

Despite the growing number of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for complex traits, it remains unclear whether effect sizes of causal genetic variants differ between populations. In principle,...
