Senior Bioinformatics Scientist at @PersonalisInc. #Bioinfo#Genomics. Navigating the human genome with data science to land impactful biological insights
🚨 BIG NEWS! 🚨 A talk by one of our collaborators was hand-selected for an additional moderated session at #AACR25!
@emma_titmuss shared a preview of #VICTORI study (#ColorectalCancer#MRD) during a press conference: https://t.co/omvTMWeNf6.
You can see Emma present the full results later today at 3:35 PM in Room S105 - McCormick Place South.
Make sure to also check out a presentation by Prof. @CharlesSwanton who will share results from #TRACERx study at 12:35 PM in the Grand Ballroom.

Ultrasensitive ctDNA assay could detect post-surgery colorectal cancer recurrence well before imaging-based detection of clinical relapse, according to results presented by Emma Titmuss, MSc: https://t.co/zIMXofqeJ2 #AACR25@Emma_Titmuss@BCCancer
Exciting data presented by Dr. Andrew Nixon from @dukemedicine and Fabio Navarro (@FNavarroBioInfo)!
NeXT Personal® demonstrated 100% baseline detection in a study of 33 patients with metastatic esophagogastric cancer (mEGC) treated with ICB therapy. #ASCO24
Exciting news! The last publication I briefly led during my Post-doc is now available! https://t.co/QmH3m2Zx1n is an invaluable resource collapsing personal genomes and multi-omics data.
Looking forward to learning what findings this resource will allow!
Huge collective effort.
Excited to announce that "The EN-TEx resource of personal epigenomes & variant impact models" just came out: https://t.co/rZwDmJCM2h. The paper represents the culmination of many years of work by >100 authors & has lots of useful information about allele-specific activity.
Wow. This is a phenomenal tool for finding #mastodon accounts for people you interact with on @twitter.

You can download a CSV and them import it into #mastodon by going to your account settings and using the import option

All areas in dark brown on this map are currently experiencing their driest "wet season" to date since at least 1979 (& longer, in some spots, but this dataset only goes back to 1979). The picture would look even worse were it not for January atmospheric river...#CAwx#CAwater
New paper just came out in @NAR_Open

8/ With ~2500 deaths/d in U.S., SF’s “share” should be ~7/day. Yet – even w/ surge – we’re averaging <1/day. Why? Might be combo of good medical care, less severe cases due to high % masking (lower viral load), healthier population. Hard to know. Will it last? Also hard to know.
So - back to the starting point - divorce in your brain "ethnicity" and "human genetics". There are some aspects that link them (physical attributes, most notably skin colour) but these links are thin and not useful. They are different things.
