Maybe everyone already knew about this, but the @AllofUsResearch results browser is up so you can look up your favorite genetic associations (I assume this is the browser @konradjk presented at #ASHG24 that is now ready?).

Jumping on my soapbox -- pointers are for pointing and NOT for circling and outlining (face-palm) #ASHG24.

Incidentally I am fuming that the official hashtag for ASHG seems to be #ASHG24 and NOT #ASHG2024. Surely that's much tidier. .

#ashg24 when picking ribbons, why choose to ostracize and remove “Industry Scientist” tags? You’ve had them every year and this year budgetary constraints removed them but added newer ribbons instead?.

Dear @GreysABC , you’re sloppy — this doesn’t show the actual confidence interval or any kind of effect size. Plus, in the previous episode, you had interns to “key in” DNA sequences of microbiomes 🤦🏾‍♂️
