Half of patients with depression don’t improve after taking antidepressants. Our new project led by Paul Yousefi aims to use #biomarkers and machine learning to predict antidepressant resistance, using Children of the 90s and Generation Scotland data #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth bit.ly/3NX1wml


📢 Job Alert: Please RT📢 Interested in health data science to identify multiomic cancer biomarkers? Exciting new postdoc opportunity in ICEP MRC IEU w/me Zahraa Abdallah Dr Sam Merriel 💙💛 Matthew Suderman Closes 9 August Get it touch to find out more👇 bristol.ac.uk/jobs/find/deta…

Want to work in early cancer detection using machine learning on multi-omic data? Look at link below - great opportunity with the brilliant Paul Yousefi, caroline relton, Matt Suderman, funded by Science and Innovation at Cancer Research UK & embedded in MRC IEU ICEP Bristol Cancer University of Bristol


Please RT: Exciting #PhD opportunity working with @dorecaramaschi Matthew Suderman Anke Karl and me on using molecular and clinical data to predict outcomes to treatments for depression in the MRC GW4 BioMed DTP University of Exeter Health Sciences at the University of Bristol: findaphd.com/phds/project/u… Apps due 1 Nov

Multi-cohort + multi-ancestry study of DNAm contributions to CRP across the lifecourse. New pre-print from @RobertHillary medrxiv.org/content/10.110… A CRP EpiScore trained in Generation Scotland performs well across all adult cohorts (correlations in the figure below).

Blood epigenome-wide DNA methylation predictor of CRP levels (low-grade inflammation) outperforms blood CRP measurement across diverse populations Cell Genomics Matthew Suderman Paul Yousefi cell.com/cell-genomics/…


Delighted to see @RobertHillary's paper on CRP and DNAm published in Cell Genomics. Lots of interesting things to highlight e.g., DNAm EpiScore that generalises across ancestries and explains 20% of the variance in measured CRP. cell.com/cell-genomics/…


Impressive pre-print and 🧵 below by Ella Davyson on the DNA methylation signature of antidepressant exposure in UK populations where we contributed validation in Children of the 90s population data as part of the NIHR Bristol Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) & MRC IEU

Last in our series of AI in Health workshops yesterday. Exciting discussions about the huge potential for AI in advancing cancer prediction and early detection. ▶️We'll be sharing recordings of all the talks soon Bristol Cancer


Fab catch up with amazing collabs from University of Bristol and MRC IEU. Loads of cool stuff on mental health, omics, inflammation, population health and EHR. Looking forward to the continued working Golam Khandaker Andrew McIntosh



📢New project on our website! Paul Yousefi + Hannah Elliott are investigating whether we can use #DNA methylation to predict disease in diverse populations by looking at current prediction models. #Research #HealthcareInnovation More info👉tinyurl.com/pt5dd56h
