#ASHG24 #ASHGtrainees Are you interested in #autism and how #mutations impact the development of the brain? Do you❤️ transcription factors and networks? Want to do all the #omics and live in the beautiful #pnw? DM me to discuss a #postdoc @OHSUSOM 🙏 RT

Thrilled for #ASHG24. Please check out the cool work from our group and collaborations! Lots of exciting methods for large scale analysis of genetic data 😁

Really excited to have this out: a cell type-specific map of the impact of an understudied class of genetic variation (tandem repeats) on gene expression, at serious scale: nearly 1800 people with both WGS and blood scRNA-seq. So much signal!
📢 New preprint alert: We’ve just published a deep dive into the role of tandem repeats (#TRs) in single-cell gene expression across the immune system, using #WGS and #scRNA-seq data from 1,790 individuals and over 5 million blood cells! 🧬

Going to #ASHG2024 next week? I will be looking forward to talk about science (we have 1 talk and 2 posters), friendship, and my newly posted popgen informatics postdoc position: sbmi.uth.edu/current-student…

I want to try something new at #ASHG24 this year: I'm going to block some time on Friday afternoon to meet with any trainees who would be interested to chat on any topic.

These laureates are VERY deserving. But an important addendum—no model could be trained without 40 years of Helen Berman and others’ work at the PDB, and we would not be certain of AF’s success without 30 years of John Moult and others’ work on CASP. Hats off to them as well 🥂
BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.”

Received perfect score on a center grant. Looks like we will be hiring postdocs for big collaboration @UCSDHealth on organoid models of schizophrenia and autism genes, CRISPR a/i screens and integrative data analysis of genes and neuroimaging, EEG and neural phenotypes! Pls RT

There's still time to apply! Our TT [open rank] position for a _computational_ geneticist at UCLA closes Oct 31. Apply if you focus on any computational genetics work and ignore the pigeon holing in the application. Feel free to reach out with questions.
