Very happy and excited to announce that I'll be starting my own research group at @emblebi! The group will focus on lineage tracing, somatic evolution and the origins of cancer. Interested in doing a postdoc in the group or know someone who is? Please reach out!
Excited to share our recent work
on cross-biobank and pan-ancestry genetic analyses of rare variants for human disease 🧬

#Onthisday 30 years ago, the Sanger Institute opened its doors and started up its sequencing machines to begin working on the Human Genome Project. ⌛️
For #Sangers30th, take a look back at what we have achieved since then ⤵️

Problem: ICD codes defining clinical events in EHR / biobanks can be inaccurate
We trained/validated a natural language processing model to adjudicate HF hospitalization from d/c summary text

Better together. International collaboration gave us the most powerful space telescope ever made, and the deepest infrared views of the universe ever seen. With our partners at @ESA and @CSA_ASC, the science can begin. Together we #UnfoldTheUniverse: https://t.co/oFA1ja4jeP
Perceptions of #dog breed temperments are ingrained in our culture. Breed #stereotypes play out in dog parks, show up in city ordinances & leases, are celebrated at dog shows, and infuse Hollywood movies... but what if I told you dog temperment doesn't work like that? 1/n
Our Community Care Cohort Project (C3PO) paper is out in @npjDigitalMed! C3PO is an #EHR cohort of >500K primary care pts at @MassGenBrigham, a powerful resource for #health & #ML research. @broadinstitute@broad_ml4h

NEWS 🎉: All of Us has released its first genomic dataset, which includes whole genome sequences from nearly 100K participants, in addition to genotyping arrays on 165K participants from diverse backgrounds. #Researchers, learn more: https://t.co/qLPou3x52A #ResearchAllofUs
Future work is needed to determine whether these findings have any implications for personalization of therapy. Grateful to @uk_biobank participants and @MassGeneralBrigham patients!👭
Excited to share our new work examining a #deeplearning model for predicting #AFib from #ECGs. Here we find that predicted risk of #AFib from the #deeplearning model is influenced by genetic predisposition to AF. @ml4h, @MGHHeartHealth, @steven_lubitz Link https://t.co/qKGFcHE9aY
Overall, ECG-AI prediction of #AFib is influenced by genetic susceptibility to the arrhythmia. #deeplearning models using raw physiologic data might be able to detect individuals at risk for disease via specific pathways, serving as digital biomarkers.
