Thrilled to be in Denver with 14 colleagues from AstraZeneca’s Centre for Genomics Research, ready for 5 days of human genomics #ASHG24 The perfect chance to learn about how genomics is transforming drug discovery! Here’s a thread of our presentations - see you there 😀

If you’re at #ASHG2024 #ASHG24 come to the platform session on cardiovascular genetics! 🫀 I’ll present our study using an AI-based phenotype to improve rare variant discovery of coronary artery disease. See paper: nature.com/articles/s4158… 📍room 401 ⏰ Wed. 8:30 am

Really fed up with ITV News. I did a pre-recorded interview in which I expressed strong scepticism about the 'coffee only good in the morning' story. But they cut all that out, leaving me apparently supporting their credulous story. I really should not be so naive.

Why do news outlets keep promoting clickbait dietary epidemiology findings when they’ve been shown to be spurious so often? It was dark chocolate b4 xmas, coffee this morning and milk this evening. ieureka.blogs.bristol.ac.uk
