Happy to see this work from @JordiLambert and @SebnemOc out today. We identify RUNX1 and TIMP1/CD74/STAT3 as vascular smooth muscle cell regulation through gene regulatory network analysis

In honour of Anna Webb, we launched an Early Career Researcher award.

The votes are in and Jennifer Heritz has just won this award at the #BHDSymposium23! 🏆

It has all been a very difficult. I’m going to take the kids away for a few nights of fresh air and recovery before trying to get back to working and some form of routine.

[Tom Webb @Tom_R_Webb]

Thank you everyone for your wishes and support over the past couple of weeks. The kind messages from friends and colleagues have helped a lot.

My wife died last week. She was the most amazing person. I’m at a loss.

[Tom Webb @Tom_R_Webb]

We held her funeral and wake last week. And we got through it. A special thank you to @LalithWijedoru, Anna’s friend, for acting as celebrant, getting words out of me and making it all much easier.

We have set-up a memorial for Anna, supporting the trust. https://t.co/rST0oxcq42

Anna was passionate about her work and carried on throughout her illness and treatment. Most recently Anna was the CEO of the Myrovlytis Trust - a medical research charity that promotes research and patient outreach for rare genetic disorders.

Very happy to share our work on #SCAD genetics out today @NatureGenet We report exciting results supporting high polygenic heritability, variations mainly related to regulation #SMC #ECM and Tissue coagulation @ERC_Research @parcc_inserm @univ_paris_cite

#OriginalResearch: A large proportion of #CAD loci modulate gene expression in vascular #SmoothMuscleCells and influence their behavior. Several candidate causal genes are likely to be potential therapeutic targets @Chris_P_Nelson @CUSolomon https://t.co/cazfPvcuJ2

Our paper explores the X chromosome, the oft-neglected/excluded chr of GWAS, and describe a locus associated with favorable lipids, CAD risk, T2D risk, and adiposity distribution https://t.co/TArb7b8sa0 @NatureComms
