“Monogenic” disorders are not so monogenic after all. In Mowat Wilson Syndrome, we show common enhancer variants at RET can modify Hirschsprung disease risk, offering a genetic explanation for phenotypic variability.

Great collaboration with @tycheleturner

Outreach note from @TNTurnerLab. One part of our research work since joining the faculty at @WashUGenetics has been building new and original genomics software out of necessity. Over ~7 years, driven by our interests in my research area of neurodevelopmental disorders, we have developed a steady stream of state of the art new original tools, and some now also apply to other phenotypes. Encouraged by other research scientists and to make this work more accessible for the community, I am releasing our first white paper: CNPI (https://t.co/eafoPTS7zS) #GenomicsWhitePapers #genomics #computation #bioinformatics

Excited to share our new paper in @BiologyOpen: “Generation and characterization of a knockout mouse of an enhancer of EBF3.” This collaborative project spans model generation, multi-omic characterization, and community release. 🧬🐭

HAT-FLEX is a caller-agnostic, drop-in trio DNV detection tool that operates directly on existing VCFs. It introduces allele-level intersection, sex/PAR-aware logic, clustering, comprehensive audit outputs, and streamlined operations. HAT-FLEX supports both trio-level and large multi-sample VCFs, producing tidy, per-child outputs with full provenance. Developed in response to user feedback from HAT, HAT-FLEX enables use of existing VCFs, can extend to non-human species with diploid genomes, improves performance, increases configurability, and provides robust handling of sex chromosomes (X/Y). If you have feedback, please email or DM me. Thanks. https://t.co/NUdoS8IdBb #genetics #genomics #denovo

Welcome Sydney!

Earlier this week, we celebrated our 10th @TNTurnerLab paper 🎉: https://t.co/ZFBKLLdARp. I am especially proud of this paper. Watching this first author grow into a leader driving the analysis portion of a project and his first paper, with quite a bit of independence was a first for me as a mentor, making it a milestone for both of us and our lab. At CSHL last fall during a poster session, a professor told me, “He’s going to get scooped up quickly, he’s great!” They were right. Jack Ustanik has now moved on to an exciting new role. Bittersweet, but truly one of the best team members I have had in my lab! Congratulations Jack! 🙌 #bioinformatics #genomics #computation #research #CNPI @WashUGenetics @SimonsFdn
