If you like coloc, but hate making a single causal variant assumption, check out this update now published https://t.co/EWdL7yF6Ul with the package available from CRAN https://t.co/jJ5EWB3DDI and vignette https://t.co/sWouPEk5c2.

Obesity-associated variants within FTO mediate disease risk through brain (Smemo, 2014) or adipose (Claussitzer, 2015) phenotypes?
Both!
How?
Extensive pleiotropism and allelic heterogeneity mediate metabolic effects of IRX3 and IRX5

ICYMI due to the holiday weekend! We have performed a genome-wide #CRISPR screen in human pancreatic beta-cells to identify genes which regulate insulin content https://t.co/EARWq71epp @antje_grotz @StanfordPeds @RDMOxford 1/

We’re hiring! Postdoc in regulatory genomics and statistical genetics. Single-nucleus multi-omics in pancreatic islets to detect context-specific e/caQTL and integrate with T1D GWAS. Collab with @ChenShuibing through @HIRN_CC

Please RT

@drjessswitz Thanks, Jessica! :)

[theparkerlab @theparkerlab]

Excited to share recent @NatureComms work, led by @rdalbanus (collab with @kitzmanlab)! Information theory applied to ATAC-seq data measures TF-chromatin interaction patterns, with a metric called chromatin information enrichment (CIE). https://t.co/afbq1apakz

@Pat_MRP_PhD So sorry to hear Patricia. Wishing your family strength and peace.

[theparkerlab @theparkerlab]

So happy my wife, a physician, got her covid19 vaccine. There's so many true heroes (including her!) that are getting us through this. Keep digging deep to fight. We're close.

Her vaccination video describing the experience:

Interested in single-cell multi-omics to dissect mechanisms at GWAS signals?

We'd love to have you on our team - a fun collaboration with @kitzmanlab !

Please apply - details here 👇
