All models are wrong and yours are useless! In case you missed my talk yesterday on how to make clinical prediction tools useful for patients, you can read all about it here. Enjoy! doi.org/10.1038/s41698…

1/ Pleased to share our large-scale #OvarianCancer #GWAS using data from the #Ovarian #Cancer Association Consortium (#OCAC) and the Consortium of Investigators of Modifiers of #BRCA1 and #BRCA2 (#CIMBA) medrxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵

4 years ago, we ran 16,554 GWASes for 7,271 traits across 6 ancestry groups and released the data to the public along with meta-analysis. After many careful dives through the results, we are happy to present these analyses on behalf of the Pan-UKB Project: medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

We understand that there are risks in performing this research, but believe that the benefits of inclusivity outweigh these. To mitigate risk, we wrote 17 pages of FAQs (modeled after SSGAC) to discuss social and ethical implications for a lay and scientific audience

Numbers tell a story, especially in #PublicHealth. In this NIH Intramural #SpeakingofScience episode, @NCIEpiTraining epidemiologist Dr. Meredith Shiels shares her work studying cancer mortality rates to uncover what populations might be at higher risk. go.nih.gov/R2q0490 #NPHW

Have a paper marinating concerning data ethics, privacy, regulation or governance in the biosciences, or know someone who does? Please consider the BMC for a special issue I am editing on bioinformatics ethics and data privacy due 13 Dec 2024!

This is a critical point. Drug target MR investigations should use genetic variants in biologically-relevant gene regions that mimic the intervention of interest. Not genetic variants that predict drug prescription or drug usage.
