Had a great time presenting my research at #WCPG2023 this week! A big thank you is owed to my mentors Dr. @FrankWendt10 and Dr. Esteban Parra (@UofT_Anthro, @UTM_Anthro), and co-authors @n_brendann and Dr. Frida Lona Durazo! Now on to the manuscript writing…
I am thrilled to share my mini-review of the role of tandem repeats in #braindisorder research! 🧠 Out now in @PPPublishing's Emerging Topics in Life Sciences #ETLS. Huge thanks to @FrankWendt1! @UTM, @UofT, @UofT_Anthro Dive into the paper here: https://t.co/CpQTcqlhhM
PhD candidate @cristina_abba95 is first author of a new publication in Forensic Genomics: From #Genetic Association to #Forensic Prediction: Computational Methods and Tools for Identifying Phenotypically Informative Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms. https://t.co/r2UybMTZcO
How does #DNA affect our fingerprints and eye colour? U of T Evolutionary #Anthropology PhD student Cristina Abbatangelo @cristina_abba95 recently published a "Curious Kids" article with Conversation Canada: 👁️🧬 https://t.co/EzjsNsGXLB
Dr. Frank Wendt @FrankWendt10 and collaborators published an article in BMC Biology describing the contribution of Neanderthal and Denisovan introgression to the common variant #genetic architectures of complex #traits in modern humans. https://t.co/9c9tugd2cx
Dr. Frank Wendt @FrankWendt10 and international colleagues uncovered a causal relationship between the #genetics of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and posttraumatic #stress disorder. https://t.co/H90zWZUd4z
#Molecular anthropologist Dr. Esteban Parra and former #UTM undergrad Phuong Le are listed as co-authors in a paper describing the most ambitious effort to characterize the #genetic architecture of height, published in the prestigious journal Nature. https://t.co/qWGip9nqxH
Starting the new school year feeling excited for my first in-poster poster presentation of my PhD at #ISHI33! I will be presenting a GWAS exploring eye colour in a Canadian dataset. Looking forward to meeting other attendees!
