Two excellent sets of take-home impressions from @s_ramach and @ewanbirney on #BoG24. I'm going home excited and inspired by the science presented this week. A few impressions from me 1/
2nd time at CSHL, I have some completely new work to share! very excited to hear the fascinating work from all the talented scientists and it was amazing to meet old friends and make more new friends, as always! #BoG24
SO excited to share our recent work!
To better understand the molecular impacts of human genetic variation, we need models that offer access to MANY more cell types and cell states. Here, we’re using a system called heterogeneous differentiating cultures (HDCs) to do this (1/n)
Sex-stratified genome wide association studies identify loci showing sex-specific effects on blood pressure, allowing for the development of sex-specific polygenic risk scores for blood pressure traits

Our most recent work is now published at @NatureGenet. Epigenetic variation impacts individual differences in the transcriptional response to influenza infection. Great collab with @guilbourque lab and huge congrats to the lead author @katiearacena. Link: https://t.co/DxdxSVOqeg
I’m really grateful for all the valuable opportunities to present this work and for all the helpful conversations with many many people at UChicago and outside in the community. I also wanna thank the anonymous reviewers for helping improve the manuscript.
