Researchers identify a link between severe pregnancy sickness and sensitivity to a hormone called GDF15. Rachel Freathy and @aliceehughes from Exeter Birth Weight Genetics Group propose this finding will prompt further interest in pregnancy-related diseases. go.nature.com/3TrtadJ

Interested in the relation between maternal BMI and pregnancy-related outcomes? Check our new paper on BMC Medicine. Very grateful to all research participants and collaborators who made this work possible pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38281920/

Well done Maneka!!🥳🥳🥳

Of course we know BOTH mother and fetus contribute, but team fetus highlighted great work on importance of fetal insulin by @aliceehughes tinyurl.com/mrxrw35c & analyses by Robin Beaumont supporting role of fetus-mediated placental growth in preeclampsia tinyurl.com/3a3umeuy

Congratulations Annika Jaitner 🥳🥳🥳

Happy to share my work on the glycaemic and non-glycaemic determinants of HbA1c during and outside pregnancy at #SGGDExeter2024 Exeter Birth Weight Genetics Group

We are hosting the South of England Genetic Epidemiology Group (SEGEG) meeting at the University of Exeter on July 1st! Registration is free and now open - forms.office.com/e/tengc4eKLk

I was very fortunate to work on this amazing project with @rbamford5 and Szi Kay Leung. Some really cool findings, including 2 putative diagnostic variants in the Genomics England 100k genomes project cohort that are in novel coding regions we identified!!

Loved remembering early GWAS days of 2006-7, being involved in FTO locus discovery as a PhD student and amazing Children of the 90s data.

Bye for now, Oulu, thank you for a wonderful time… Food for thought (science, health, population studies), collaborative spirit, and friendship 🇫🇮 Aminata Cissé Janine Felix Nicholas Timpson Bhargav Naveen, Sylvain Sebert @STRUANGRANT Marjo-Riitta Jarvelin Elina Keikkala

Team Away Day 2024! Stimulating, reflective and fun… and we didn’t get too wet!

Congratulations Maneka Haulder! 🥳🥳🥳 A beautiful day to celebrate your graduation Beverley Shields @athattersley Exeter Birth Weight Genetics Group

Congratulations Dr. Caitlin Decina on your successful PhD viva today! 🥳🥳🥳 Thank you so much to examiners and Chair, Jessica Dennis Jess Tyrrell Craig Beall_Lab🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 . And thank you, international dream team of cosupervisors: Robin Beaumont david_mf_evans Nicole Warrington .Time to celebrate 🥳 🍾

🎺🎺🎺PhD opportunity! tinyurl.com/2ss844jb 👀 Great opportunity to work with a supervisory team at the Unis of Bristol and Exeter. The successful student will analyse amazing datasets to characterise metabolic profiles relating to adiposity throughout childhood

Two fantastic presentations from ExeterDiabetes team members Richard Oram and Erin Templeton on #T1D risk. In girls at age 10y risk of developing T1D dramatically reduces- ? Effect of puberty. Mothers with #t1d protect child lifelong from t1d risk vs paternal t1d. #EASD2024

Come and work with our team! 2 research posts available either grad or postdoc level: tinyurl.com/57jthuxp (closes 29Sept), and tinyurl.com/ycfz7yxt (closes 9 Oct). Data, genetics, interesting biology, supportive colleagues, lovely place to live!

Our method, #DINGO (Direct and INdirect analysis of Genetic lOci), named after Australian wild dog 🐕, now in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146… DINGO meta-analyzes maternal and fetal #GWAS to enhance statistical power for genetic loci discovery 🧬💡 david_mf_evans Institute for Molecular Bioscience

So happy to see this published in NatComms! tinyurl.com/yc66amvu Rare variant assocs with birth wt identify 9 genes. Insights into links btwn earlygrowth and later metabolic health. Great collabs btwn teams Exe&Camb. Amazing resources of UKB & deCODE made it possible.
