I was excited to debut the hard work that @CGBiar and I have done on developing curated loci prime editing (cliPE) for accessible MAVE experiments. Full methods coming soon to a preprint server, but if you want to try it out sooner don’t hesitate to reach out #VariantEffect24
Excited for Day 1 of #VariantEffect24 !!!

Long non-coding RNAs comprise a large part of the genome, yet loss of one copy (haploinsufficiency) of a lncRNA is not known to cause a human disease. Read our preprint to learn how deletions of the lncRNA CHASERR cause a severe neurodevelopmental disorder.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

I want to remind soon-to-be college graduates to check out @GeneticsSociety and @genome_gov's new Post-Baccalaureate Genomics Analyst Fellowship! This is a great opportunity for recent college graduates to gain exposure and training in career paths relevant to human genomics.

Super 🧵 on @stjudegraduate student @asianflamme's first 1st-author paper using 🧬methylation to investigate novel causes of #epilepsy! 👇 She's presenting this awesome story at #ASHG23 on Sat 11/4 (10:45am, BallrmA, level 3)! Hope to see you there! #ASHGtrainees #ProudPI
Thrilled to share our work in @hcmefford lab on genome-wide #DNAmethylation analysis in pediatric #epilepsy. In this preprint, we looked for regions of rare DNA methylation and screened for established episignatures to determine diagnostic utility (1/6): medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

It’s kinda ridiculous that I’m here writing a grant for October cycle, while the one from June won’t be reviewed for another 2 months…. #NIH

The multitalented @yooonest is not only a fabulous scientist, fledgling MD/PhD but ALSO a speedy runner to boot! She’s running the Chicago Marathon in a few weeks to support RMHC plz consider helping her get to her fundraising goal by checking out the thread from Esther below!
13 Sep 2023
For the past 4 mos I’ve been training for the Chicago Marathon, which has been a dream/challenge of mine since I’ve started my training @NUMSTP. I’ll be running for Ronald McDonald House Chicago, a group that provides housing/meals for families when their child is hospitalized.
