Behind every discovery is the tech that makes it possible. At King’s, the advanced long-read sequencing facility NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) helps us decode the link between genetics and health, one base at a time 🧬🥼🧪Gerome Breen King's MND Centre Oxford Nanopore

Extreme regulations about data sharing risk leaving Europe behind in the precision medicine race❗️🧬 GDPR is interpreted differently by each EU state-member🇪🇺 Cross-border data sharing restrictions often kill collaborative projects, despite researchers' best intentions.

We are thrilled to share this work linking specific human brain cell types to psychiatric and neurological disorders, out now in Nature Neuroscience rdcu.be/d6Tcy See below for an overview and thanks to the amazing Tayden Li, William Giardino, Deis Sero, and so many others!

'Only the people who are the right amount of sick, at the right time, in the right place, in the right body with the right diagnosis get seen. Even then, treatment might harm them.' James Downs at the #endeatingdisorders APPG report launch.

Matthias visited our team and had a great idea: What if - to predict disease onset - we use the semantic meaning associated with structured EHR data, rather than the actual codes? Would this make the model easier to transfer across countries/healthcare? GRASP was born

Most common causes PREVENTABLE by #vaccination. #WHO launches the FIRST Technical Brief on #Encephalitis today, supported by Encephalitis International & Inst of Infection Veterinary & Ecological Sciences teams The 4th leading cause of #neurological death/disability in #children and 13th most common across all ages world-wide.
