@GholsonLyon I checked Twitter today for the first time in 5 months & your tweet was at the top of my feed. Agreed that—at least for scientific discourse—Twitter has died. I did not find a new home at Mastodon & LinkedIn is too broad. Open to ideas—

I requested an archive of my tweets and will be leaving Twitter soon. Many thanks for an amazing 12 years learning with all of you!

Artificial intelligence for multimodal data integration in oncology

“The role of AI in advancing the field of oncology is not autonomous; rather, it is a partnership between models and human experience that will drive further progress.”

#GWAS measures up
12k variants and counting!

[Broad Institute @broadinstitute]

In the largest genome-wide association study to date, researchers from the GIANT consortium have uncovered nearly all the common genetic variants that influence height. https://t.co/H1pODldfqi

New research is revealing that cancer is rife with bacteria and fungi — a rich ecosystem that scientists call the tumor microbiome. https://t.co/GsB2CGekQm

Thank you for a memorable @illumina Genomics Forum. Just a note to test again after traveling home 🦠 ✈️

It’s a short putt from the $200 genome to the $100 genome. #IGF

[Illumina @illumina]

This morning at the Illumina Genomics Forum, we unveiled our fastest, most cost-efficient sequencing machine yet – the NovaSeq X series. This technology will slash the cost to $200 per human genome and provide a readout at twice the speed. @WIRED feature: https://t.co/AeIizKAzio

@AlbertVilella @fdesouza The real-time update of your spreadsheet is awesome. Thank you for the live tweets.

[KT Pickard 💉x 5 @kt_pickard]

@AlbertVilella $200 per genome, including reagents and bfx. Did I get that right?

Today’s takeaway from @BarackObama: Changing mindsets and incentives will eventually transform healthcare. #IGF

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

He basically summarized we've made solid progress with genomics research, such as with the @AllofUsResearch program, but slow to move to the clinical realm
Agree. We'll get there eventually.......
