We are still thrilled to announce ENCODE as the latest AWS Public Data Set! registry.opendata.aws/encode-project/ #OpenScience ENCODE Project

We're announcing Nucleome Browser, an integrative & multimodal data navigation platform for 4DNucleome & the broad community. This tool is a result of tremendous creativity & herculean effort over the years from Xiaopeng Zhu (朱蓬) Yang Zhang, in collab. w/ Jason Swedlow Andrew Belmont 1/n



Our understanding of cell-type-specific processes in disease development is hampered by the fact that bulk-tissue DNA methylomes are an average of many diverse cell types. How to tackle this problem? Find out about our most recent work with @aetesch just out Nature Methods! 1/7





Join our May 10 SeqSPACE webinar to hear about NIH ORIP Precision Disease Modeling Initiative and its functional & phenotypic analysis of disease-causing variants in model organisms. Details: epi.grants.cancer.gov/events/seqSPAC… BCMHouston The Jackson Laboratory UAB




Our understanding of disease variants in minorities is hampered by the fact that many epigenomic datasets are not available for certain populations. How to tackle this problem? Find out about our work with @NoraFranceschi2 just out Nature Genetics! nature.com/articles/s4158… 🧵 1/9


We queried public ENCODE Project epigenomic datasets for different statistical metrics relating to race/ethnicity/country of origin, finding only 42.7% of experiments reporting any race or ethnicity information. The way forward here: SNP-based ancestry imputation across all samples


Interested in Program Director positions National Human Genome Research Institute? We have an exciting opportunity for a Program in Genome Science. Application period is September 21-30. genome.gov/careers-traini…
