So proud of my student Tanvi, and very grateful to @NFXFoundation for giving her this opportunity and supporting our research!
Meet RJH Summer Scholar: ⭐Tanvi Kamra⭐ A sophomore undergrad at Emory, Tanvi will study multiomic analysis of postmortem brains in Fragile X-associated disorders w/ her mentor Dr. Nisha Raj. 👏 Congrats on the 2025 Randi J. Hagerman Award, Tanvi! 🔗 https://t.co/LqYLsAuAC5

It is with great sadness that the Simons Foundation announces the death of its co-founder and chair emeritus, James Harris Simons. Jim was an award-winning mathematician, a legendary investor and a generous philanthropist. https://t.co/w48DhauUVj

Our preprint describing the Tandem Repeat Genotyping Tool (TRGT) is now available. In this paper we describe how TRGT combined with long and accurate @PacBio sequencing can detect all of the features known to be associated with tandem repeats.

Tandem repeat (TR) variation is associated with gene expression changes and over 50 rare monogenic diseases. Recent advances in sequencing have enabled accurate, long reads that can characterize the...
