Thanks, Oxford_IDRM and Department of Paediatrics! I really enjoyed reflecting on these questions, and I hope my experiences can be helpful to others. In the link below, I share my thoughts on overcoming challenges and what I've learned along the way!👇 #AdaLovelaceDay


This was such a wonderfully rewarding experience. Humbling to meet some of the wonderful families and to talk about what is known, what is not yet known, and how together we can drive progress ❤️🧬👭 Sarah Wynn

Congratulations again Ruizhi Deng! 🎉 It was a pleasure to be on your examination committee, and fun to experience the formalities of a thesis defence in the Netherlands. And thank you for hosting me in Rotterdam Stefan Barakat 💻🧬🤓

Thank you to the many clinicians, scientists, patients and families involved in the DDD study, Wellcome Sanger Institute Helen Firth Matt Hurles. A genetic diagnosis in rare diseases makes a huge difference to clinical management and patient outcomes, see: doi.org/10.1016/j.gimo…






Delighted to be advertising exciting PhD project with James Poulter Lucy Stead on translation of novel neuro peptides from long non-coding RNAs findaphd.com/phds/project/m…

Super proud of @rbamford5 (Rosie Bamford) who is a finalist for the ASHG ASHG Training Research Excellence Award. If you are at the meeting and interested in brain alternative splicing, make sure you check out her talk! #ASHG24 #ASHG2024 University of Exeter News University of Exeter Faculty of Health & Life Sci

Coming up in 10 minutes is the incredible Yuyang Chen in room 505! #ASHG24 #ASHG2024

Super proud of Yuyang Chen for doing a beautiful job in his talk at #ASHG24 #ASHG2024 🤩


Meet the team!! Four of our wonderful team will be presenting in this afternoon's poster session. Please go say hello and chat to them about their work. I may be biased, but they are all awesome! Eloise Wells Elston D'Souza Ruby Dawes Hyung Chul Kim #ASHG24 #ASHG2024





Congratulations to Nicky Whiffin on being awarded the Balfour Lecturer! Her innovative contributions on the role of genetic variants in rare diseases are shaping the future of research and discovery. We look forward to her inspiring lecture! genetics.org.uk/medals-and-pri…
