Excited to share some new work from us today on ultra-rapid genome sequencing for the diagnosis of critically ill children and adults. In critical care settings, genetic diagnosis can shorten stays, direct precision therapy, save money, and help with family planning. 1/

Super excited to release genebass.org, a web application for browsing association results for 3,700 phenotypes across 281,850 individuals from the UK Biobank. The site features plots, tables, and controls for exploring billions of associations.

Our work in childhood-onset HCM now published in #EHJ @ESC_Journals Take Home Points: 1) 3 peaks of HCM onset, peak in teens driven by Sarcomeric HCM 2) ~15% of HCM is diagnosed in childhood, carrying ~2%/yr event rate 3)⬆️risk of VT & VAD/Transplant compared to adult-onset
