Interesting study of UK Biobank exomes for common traits. In aggregate, rare variants still explain much less variance than common PRS (note scale is corr), but can already better identify phenotypic extremes (top 0.1%). https://t.co/4rRfRwp5c0

With the new academic year starting, and many people beginning fresh as graduate students, post-docs, or junior faculty, I have been thinking a lot about the core philosophies that govern my own perspectives on science. So I thought I would share. Welcome to The Tao of Cheese

Excited to share our collaboration w/ @bradleybio demonstrating that pharmacologic modulation of splicing induces immunogenic neoantigens and augments response to checkpoint blockade. Jointly led by @SXLuLab, @ejdeneef, @jdthomaslab. Out today in @Cell: https://t.co/kKWVNjnv9C

By provoking production of “neoantigens” that are recognized by immune cells, drugs that modulate RNA splicing can enhance cancer immunotherapy.
