We are pleased to share that Amadou Gaye, Genetic Epidemiologist at Meharry Medical College, will be speaking at our Respiratory Genomics Conference (4th & 5th Nov 2025) on the subject of health equity & diversity.

We are excited to announce that @omkurmi will be a speaker at our Respiratory Genomics Conference in November. You can read about the Nepal Family Cohort Study here:

Past eQTL studies have mostly focused on one gene at a time. But in the human genome, genes often occur in clusters and tend to be co-regulated by shared mechanisms. So why not consider neighboring genes together when mapping eQTLs? A new preprint tests this idea and introduces
