Very excited that my meta-analysis of telomere length GWAS and experimental validation showing that POP5 and KBTBD6 are human telomere length regulation genes is out in @NatureComms! Shout out to my mentors @alexisjbattle and @RasikaMathias nature.com/articles/s4146…

Excited to share our preprint: Integration of transcriptomics and long-read genomics prioritizes structural variants in rare disease. medrxiv.org/content/10.110….

New preprint! We inferred coexpression networks from over 95K RNA-seq samples in recount3, check out what we found on heritability, context-specificity, and more. Led by Prashanthi Ravichandran and with @princyparsana @RebeccaKeener9 @KasperDHansen - biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Super excited for #ASHG23 ! I'll be talking about this work on Thursday. Please get in touch if you'd like to connect!

Thrilled to share our work on inferring gene networks in T cells using CRISPR perturbations. We show how to build these networks + use them to interpret GWAS. This work co-led with @maya_arce_ + senior authors @jkpritch @alexisjbattle @MarsonLab 🧵👇tinyurl.com/2spd6hwu

Excited to present at #ASHG2023! We prioritized long read-based SVs in rare disease patients @UDNconnect  with Watershed-SV, integrating annotation+RNA-seq to infer functional rare SVs. Co-led with @jensen_tanner+senior authors @euanashley @sbmontgom @mike_schatz @alexisjbattle

DAESC is now on @NatureComms ! Great support from @alexisjbattle and coauthors @BennyStrobes @popp_josh @RebeccaKeener9 @jihk99 .

Our paper on detecting changes in allele-specific expression from single cell data is now out in @NatureComms! Led by @guanghao_qi rdcu.be/doqG8

We looked at the effects of rare variation on mRNA, protein, and methylation and two time points in 1,319 MESA participants, now out: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Led by @taibo_li and Nicole Ferraro, with @sbmontgom and a great team.

0. FIRST PREPRINT OF MY PhD IS OUT!!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We have a super weird take on error control in gene regulatory network inference. Let me borrow your eyeballs. 🧵

My lab is recruiting postdocs broadly working on genomics in health/medicine and would be thrilled to have a Malone Fellow. See below, and reminder the program is accepting applications until April 30. Many other great potential mentors too. Contact me w/ questions!

Announcing the Johns Hopkins Malone Fellows program for postdoctoral researchers! This is a prestigious, named and funded postdoc at the intersection of engineering and medicine. See more and apply here: malonecenter.jhu.edu/malone-fellows/

Here's what's wrong with the state of centers for teaching and learning. A job ad from CU Denver, an institution I admire deeply, so I don't mean this as shade against a particular institution. There is nothing unusual about this job ad. That's the point. cu.taleo.net/careersection/…

Hello RNA/DNA twitter! Especially postdocs, PhD students and early career researchers! I am organising the Gordon Research Seminar on Nucleic Acids scheduled to take place on June 17th and 18th 2023 at Maine! grc.org/nucleic-acids-…

Science is a lot of fucking around for a very small amount of finding out


This survey from @Nature about quiet quitting is everything wrong with academic mentality. "Cutting back on duties to tackle burnout" is not quiet quitting. Quiet quitting is doing minimal work to avoid being fired, not balancing work and life. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Hi Hopkins community! Last year, we introduced The Career Impact Award to celebrate and uplift those who serve as powerful advocates and supporters of the career aspirations of others. Its time to nominate a Doc, Postdoc, Faculty, Alumni or Staff once again! Link & Deets below.

Discovered the R function beep(), which beeps when your code is done running so you don't have to keep eyes on it

A thread on bad science and racism, featuring a paper whose fans claim prove there's a "violence gene" that black men have more of and that makes them more prone to violence.
