Looking forward to my first time at #ACNP2023 ! I will be presenting our work on sex difference in the common genetic architecture of the human brain at the Wednesday poster session! Also, my six year old wrote this poem and asked if I could read it at the meeting: 🐱 🐀 🎩 🧀

Great talk by Dr. Samantha Meltzler-Brody on postpartum depression at today’s presidentla plenary #ACNP2023. So encouraging to see great research being done in the fields of maternal mental health.

Still at #ACNP2023 and want to hear about our work on sex differences in the genetic basis of human brain anatomy? Stop by Poster 153: Wednesday 5-7 pm! We performed sex-stratified genetic analyses across 1100 brain MRI phenotypes in 30,000 sample in the UKBiobank.

When I thought I was done with the GWAS stories of 2023 and I should wrap up, stephen o'rahilly (its pronounced O-RA-hill-EEE) dropped yet another great paper from his team. How can I resist? It's storytelling time. In this hot-off-the-press Nature paper, Marlena Fejzo et al. uncover an absolutely fascinating

Each month an #egg is ovulated from the #ovary, starting the journey of reproduction. But how does ovulation occur?🥚 Our latest work in Nature Cell Biology led by Christopher Thomas and Tabea Marx, describes the control of #ovulation using live imaging. bit.ly/3Ya8dEL (1/7)
