Read an interesting #OA article in our July issue that discusses Disease causing cis variants in Transcription factor genes by @WyWyWa @robinvdlee @CorreardSolenne

[Solenne Correard @CorreardSolenne]

During my PhD, I studied a non coding variant implicated in a rare disease without interpretation guidelines directly relevant for such variants.
To address that, we introduce an evidence framework specific to regulatory variants.

Our latest work on regulatory variants in disease out now @TrendsGenetics:

• Literature compilation+analysis of 46 variants for 40 TF genes

• Framework for assessing evidence of variant pathogenicity+molecular impact

For the amazing @silentgenomes project, we need a post-doc with an interest in equitable access to genome medicine. Creating resources in partnership with Canada's Indigenous communities that positively impact clinical genetics and empower choice.

What did you do on your summer vacation? Robin van der Lee, postdoctoral fellow @BCChildrensHosp, volunteered @GenomeBC’s Geneskool. Read how he had the opportunity to explore northern BC while connecting with students in remote communities about science: https://t.co/pEaCr3D0Gq

[Robin van der Lee @robinvdlee]

@GenomeBC @BCCHresearch @BCChildrensHosp @CMMT_UBC I hope and think we did. Thanks for the great opportunity to connect with those kids!

[Wyeth Wasserman @WyWyWa]

Happy 20th Birthday to the Wasserman Lab! On 15 March 1999 the lab (consisting of me and an empty room) was established at the @karolinskainst in Stockholm. After 20 years and a move to @UBC / @BCCHresearch / @CMMT_UBC >100 past and present members have joined in the effort. 1/2

@AMathelier @WyWyWa @anshulkundaje @Fly_Norwegian @ofornes Likewise @AMathelier! Hope your flight will leave soon!

[Robin van der Lee @robinvdlee]

@CMMT_UBC Great to be here :-)!
