May in 3 snapshots 📸 1. Completed a lab exchange visit with Dr. @tchikowore1 @harvardmed 🧬👩🏾‍💻 2. Awarded a @blkwomencompbio travel grant to participate in the @bioinfoedsummit 🌏🧬 3. Co-hosted one of the largest and historic Africa focused conference in Europe🌍🎤 #phdjourney

Happy to share env-MR-MEGA - first in our suite of environment-adjusted #GWAS methods Use summary-level data to quantify environmental and ancestral heterogeneity Amazing teamwork with @SiruRooney, @SolaOjewunmi, @ab_kamiza, Michele Ramsay, Andrew Morris, @tchikowore1, @SFatumo

The last of our trio of papers on alternative classes of methods for generating PGS for multi-ancestry population @PRSdivsesity using summary statistics data is out! The whole project was possible by incredible team effort and individual leaderships by @JingningZhang35

The upcoming @NIH Director's Seminar Series on May 17th will be presented by @genome_gov's Dr. Neil Hanchard. He will discuss his studies of human genetic variation across the African continent. Learn more about the event: https://t.co/CYj1Wj9ITa  #NIH_IRP

Today has started the strategic plan meeting for the @H3Africa v.2.0. PIs and emerging leaders in genomics in #Africa have gathered in #Mauritius and Online for a 2-days meeting aiming to design the future of genomics in Africa

Great research at the intersection of genetics and nutrition an innovative perspective to look at malnutrition in Africa.Great work @nhnchrd

Great work @nilanjan10c and team

Snippets from the past--a Sunday read: I recently revisited this gem of a paper ( https://t.co/wEIHI2qZiB) from Jonathan Cohen, Helen Hobbs and team, who first found that loss of function variants in PCSK9 reduce blood cholesterol, based on a prior work by Catherine Boileau and

Grateful for the invite @nilanjan10c , looking forward to future collaboration in the PRS x environment interactions space

Fresh from @NaturePortfolio great to have been part of this collaborative work, thanks to @DrRonaldMa1 @paulwfranks @NesMathioudakis @AbrarAh84 @LeeLingLim1 and team

Great work @paul_f_oreilly and team🥳🥳

Diabetes will increase the most in LMICs. 145% increase by 2030 in Africa. 67% of people in Africa are living with diabetes without knowing. Treatment coverage is less than 10% in LMICs. How can medicine be made more accessible and precise (accurate) #WorldDiabetesDay

When I started working on #CRISPR to fight heart disease >10 years ago, I never imagined it might lead to cures for rare inborn errors of metabolism. Here’s how it’s happening! Presented/published today #ASHG23 #ASHG2023 @GeneticsSociety plenary + @AJHGNews + @HGGAdvances 🧵

Greetings from the PRIMED Consortium @PRSdiversity meeting in Arlington, VA!

Delighted to see this out today, coinciding with the #EASD2023 Precision Medicine in Diabetes Session A massive effort from >200 scientists to define gaps and opportunities for the clinical translation of precision diabetes medicine https://t.co/V8o78l8DFQ Key takeaways below:

Happy to have been part of the fantastic 200 scientists who made this possible...Many thanks to @paulwfranks for the outstanding leadership and unique collaborative spirit. Indeed, tremendous and impactful science is a team sport.

@DrLizCash Hello, there is your unroll: Thread by @jenniejlin: "I recently had the privilege of attending @nih_nhlbi’s workshop for K grant awardees. It was fantastic, and in t […]" #KtoR01 #ESI https://t.co/a9pxfry1fY Talk to you soon. 🤖

African genomics to the world, great collaboration with @AfSHGenetics
