I must admit - Robert De Niro is right: Switzerland is just too perfect, too nice. 😉🇨🇭🎥 Switzerland #IneedSwitzerland #InLoveWithSwitzerland #paidpartnership youtube.com/watch?v=wXcBGf…

We're thrilled to release a manuscript on rare variant association testing on the exomes of 300k individuals in the UK Biobank medrxiv.org/content/10.110… and a browser of the results: genebass.org

Super excited to release genebass.org, a web application for browsing association results for 3,700 phenotypes across 281,850 individuals from the UK Biobank. The site features plots, tables, and controls for exploring billions of associations.

Happy to finally share this manuscript - large-scale Crohn's exomes from IIBDGC demonstrates complementarity of GWAS and exome findings and many new CD genes. Unlike neurodev - most signal from more common low-frequency variants medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

We studied microbiome dynamics in 245 FMT cases across 13 studies where fecal transplants were used to treat patients who suffered from rCDI, IBD, Metabolic Syndrome, Drug-Resistant Pathogen colonization, or went through ICI anti-tumor therapy. x.com/DanielPodlesny…

Great read on lessons from GWAS on infectious disease phenotypes, by Jacques Fellay Christian Thorball and Alessandro Borghesi. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Pleased to announce our latest work is now live at Nature Metabolism (@natmetabolism), in which we show polygenic risk scores (PRS) can be used to identify novel and causal proteins underlying disease risk. nature.com/articles/s4225… Thread 1/9

Share this ⤵️ with young 🇲🇪 Montenegrin women eager for a future in science or tech! Montenegro is one of only 6 Euro countries eligible to submit candidates for this 4 week #STEM program in the 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (together with 8 mo. of mentoring)!! Great opportunity for #GirlsInSTEM 🔬🔬🔬

Pleased to announce our recent work is now live Cell Genomics, in which we show machine learning optimized polygenic scores for blood cell traits can stratify sex-specific trajectories and identify genetic correlations with disease. cell.com/cell-genomics/… Thread 1/8

Very pleased to share this exciting new work, a highly collaborative effort, on the development, validation and application of genetic scores for a wide range of multi-omic traits. Preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Online Portal: omicspred.org Thread 1/9

Our latest research on the combined impact of genetics and infection on the risk of cardiovascular disease actu.epfl.ch/news/oral-bact… EPFL Life Sciences CHUV / Centre hospitalier universitaire vaudois

Over and over again, modern behavioral genetics studies have revealed how flawed the assumption of "equal parts nature and nurture" has been. But the myth remains embedded in the conventional wisdom because numbers in the middle feel intuitively "correct".

One fantastic collaboration with Casanova Lab, Adrian Gervais, @ShenYingZhang, and all the co-authors - just go through the thread to discover more !

I'm delighted to release the first half of my new open-access online textbook in human population genetics: web.stanford.edu/group/pritchar…
