Excited to share our latest study on integrating single-cell RNAseq data with polygenic scores to predict cisplatin-induced ototoxicity!

Read more here: https://t.co/kfvGLscqYJ & and in the great summary thread by PhD student @MiaoNixie below!👇

[Deanne Nixie Miao @MiaoNixie]

1/ Starting the year by reflecting on some exciting progress from late last year: our research article, “Leveraging Large-Scale Datasets and Single Cell Omics Data to Develop a Polygenic Score for Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity”, has been published. Here's a thread summarizing key findings and insights from this work.
