Excited to share our latest preprint where we describe how diverse ancestral representation in sequencing databases improves genetic intolerance estimates! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


New preprint!

Excited to share our latest pre-print, led by @al_han1, where we show that greater genetic diversity, rather than sample size alone, improving the accuracy of genetic intolerance metrics biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out our new preprint! A description of a novel risk gene for Parkinson's disease! I have learned so much from working with scientists from all backgrounds on this project.

Excited to share our latest paper, where we describe ITSN1 as a novel risk gene for Parkinson's disease! We found that rare loss-of-function variants are associated with a 10-fold increased odds of PD. As far as we know, this is the largest effect size reported for sporadic PD…
