Kevin Lu, Maggie Ng & @NancyGenetics are recruiting for a genetic epidemiology postdoctoral fellow! 📰Read more to join us in @VUMCgenetics! 🧬 vanderbilt.edu/postdoc/prospe…
So excited to be passing the baton to such a thoughtful physician scientist engaged in both creating important new discoveries and in translating discovery for improving human health! We have such terrific young people deserving of leadership roles — GO ALEX!
I am honored and thrilled to take on the role of Division Director for Genetic Medicine @VUMC_Medicine! As a junior faculty member, I benefited tremendously from mentorship and support from @NancyGenetics I look forward to paying it forward @VUMCgenetics!
Indeed! So much important research is being done with the GWAS catalog — pleiotropy, genetics in diverse populations, investigation of signatures of natural selection overlapping GWAS hits — being able to include cancer biology is critical.
Always fun to see the progress made and participate in discussions about the future efforts of this great resource. A consensus from today is that we’d really value more #SumStats from our cancer colleagues !
Congratulations 🎉
TONS of thanks to Eric, Nancy, Yi, Xue, and Chunyu! I wouldn't dare to even think about it for a second without you.
So true! The one common certainty of senior women in science is that they “didn’t do it the right way” — they each did it a different right way for them!
There is no one “right” career path. There is only *your* career path. And, if you’re like me, there will be times that it doesn’t even look like a path or it’s not taking you where you want to go. But, there is always another turn waiting ahead.
This has been one of the most fun and exciting projects to think about and work on from conception. Kudos to Doug and his team — fantastic work with terrific downstream utility!
Excited to share new preprint "Phenotypic signatures in clinical data enable systematic identification of patients for genetic testing" led by @MorleyTheodore and with @NancyGenetics @lisa_bastarache @lhan111 @jonmorra8 medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Josee Dupuis — super mentor, super scientist, super leader. Congratulations on terrific award!
ASHG Honors Josée Dupuis, PhD with the 2020 Mentorship Award - ASHG - wonderfully well deserved @ProfJoseeDupuis congratulations 🍀🤗⭐️ ashg.org/publications-n…
Advocacy is hard work, but Dr. Jeff has always made it look easy because of her passion — thanks from the entire community!
Dr. Janina Jeff @inthosegenespod - the recipient of the 2020 ASHG Advocacy Award - has been at the forefront of advocacy at the intersect of genomics and black voices in science and society for many years. Well deserved!!! We are cheering from @SinaiGenHealth Janina!!! 👏🧬🌟
Ken Lange is a treasure for the entire genetics community! Such an impact in our field with his research, his books and his many outstanding trainees!
Wonderful to see this. Ken was a great mentor as I started at UCLA: ASHG Honors Kenneth Lange, PhD with the 2020 Arno Motulsky-Barton Childs Award for Excellence in Human Genetics Education ashg.org/publications-n…
Well-deserved award and so proud to be a collaborator!
So happy and excited to see Ben achieve this award!
Congrats Ben. So well deserved....! Now you can buy me a beer next time I’m in town.
So love to see important new work in transcriptome genetics in African Americans. Congratulations to Team Perera!
The richness of the African Ancestry genome is truly amazing. Our newest paper on discoveries in African American Hepatocytes! Great work @Yizhen81426083 @NUFeinbergMed #PLOSGenetics: Discovery of novel hepatocyte eQTLs in African Americans dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…
Grateful I can be busy at home, so I don’t worry even more than usual. But for others also this lucky, remember not all of our loved ones share this luck. Reach out even more than usual, to family members and others who cannot work from home. #newtraditions2020
Having a blast @UCLA_CGSI — amazing science, enthusiastic young people, and (if you enjoyed my Old Fashioneds at the picnic) dancing under the stars to Chaka Khan at the Hollywood Bowl!
Day 4 #FemStarScience I salute Jane Ferguson Megan Shuey Tyne Miller @MarthaDudek @gillianhoo And challenge the terrific @AnnaGreka (young but senior) to name each day for 1 week 5 rising female stars in science and challenge 1 senior woman
Day 3 of my #FemStarScience challenge and celebrate @CrunchyNeuroSci Reyna Gordon @MNiarchou Maria Niarchou Qiping Feng @SelFdz Selene Fernandez Cassianne Robinson-Cohen And challenge @Anna_DiRienzo to name each day for 1 week 5 rising female stars and challenge 1 senior woman
Day 2 of #FemStarScience and I champion Alex Fish Rebecca Levinson Lea Davis @daniela_oaks @paleogenomics And challenge my friend and colleague @klmohlke to name for each day for 1 week 5 rising female stars in science and challenge one senior woman!
Do celebrate the birth of a paper, or the gestation of a grant. They are as pure a distillation of our love for scientific inquiry as there is. Celebrate the science! Other people’s judgements might sometimes be worth celebrating too, but science first!

Association of Genetic Variants With Warfarin-Associated Bleeding Among Patients of African Descent ja.ma/2S9MKZ1. So cool to see progress toward reducing rather than increasing health disparities — excellent work by Minoli Perera and colleagues!
Cool approach introduced by Emily Hodges at Vanderbilt Genetics Symposium: ATAC-Seq x BiSeq to look simultaneously at DNA accessibility and methylation over time — ATAC Me
