I am delighted to share that my first paper has just been published in AJMGB 🥳🥳. I would Like to thank my collaborators @neurosoren@BFranke_lab@RM_Nina but most of all @ESprooten for her continued mentorship and Patience (with me) https://t.co/GFRN26ebi8 a 🧶(1/5)
🧬 FUMA v2.0.0 is out, updated by Tanya Phung @ CTG Lab

New preprint on a controversial topic:
Through which socioeconomic mechanisms do individuals with higher genetic predisposition for educational attainment end up with higher income over their working life?
We study this using uniquely rich Finnish data.
Interested in trans-ancestry GWAS and cognitive performance? Come chat with me today at poster #9152 — sharing novel insights from the Health Singapore Cohort! 🧠🧬 #ASHG2025#Genetics#GWAS
New publication! @BiologicalPsyc1
We expand on our prior work demonstrating that pleiotropic effects of cognitive GWAS can provide biological insights into schizophrenia GWAS results. We differentiated "concordant" from "discordant" subsets of schizophrenia risk SNPs (1/3)

I'm so happy to share that our paper "Immune-developmental processes contribute to schizophrenia risk: insights from a genetic overlap study with height" has been published in Biological Psychiatry 🥳 https://t.co/dqGXiCntTB
🚨So delighted to see this work looking at the genetic overlap between depression symptoms and Alzheimer’s disease now published in @NatMentHealth@SpringerNature🚨

I think this JAMA article from last week received insufficient attention - different computations of PRS for the same disease, despite nearly identical population performance, resulted in very different classifications at the individual level

Glad to share our work on antidepressant switching with UK Biobank on #WCPG2024 , and has garnered loads of interest!
Many thanks for @ISPGnet for offering us the opportunity to share our work and supervision from @cathrynlewis@michelleukamp for making this work possible.
Great talk by @chrislowh on the final day of #WCPG2024 mood disorder session discussing SRRI switching, it’s current utility and future prospects. @ISPGnet@SGDPCentreKCL
Honoured to receive the Gershon Paper of the Year Award from @ispgnet at #wcpg2024 in Singapore! This award is especially meaningful as it represents the joint effort with my incredible husband, @powell_tim_r. Grateful to everyone who supported us along the way! #LGBTinSTEM
