Excited to present new genomics tool: we use complex trait genetic data to study organisation of cellular gene programs. We then use it to predict genetic causes of disease from underpowered gwas. Great work from @DaliaMizikovsky. https://t.co/oAOtMNBREq

[National Human Genome Research Institute @genome_gov]

Scientists in the Telomere-to-Telomere (#T2T) consortium have published the first complete, gapless human genome sequence. This can lead to a better understanding of our genomic variations and provide insight for missing heritability and human disease. https://t.co/zZBpKbDKHd
