Our multi-population GWAS paper on Afib is online now @NatureComms
We identified more genetic loci, population-specific genetic correlations, improved polygenic risk score, and enhanced risk prediction by integrating a PRS and protein score.

This is my guy @BarWoolf doing some clever stuff to show how mis-specifying the exposure in drug target MR can cause all kinds of problems! Really nicely supervised by @stevesphd to have created a lovely paper

#Research suggests that higher plasma #caffeine concentrations may have potential benefits for reducing #adiposity and lowering risk of #Type2Diabetes. Clinical study is needed to investigate the translational potential of these findings. ▶️ bit.ly/3Zw17sQ

New article out in @BMJMedicine with @LarssonSC and @dpsg108 bmjmedicine.bmj.com/content/…
We use drug target MR to support a protective effect of plasma caffeine levels on diabetes - and find that this is mediated by an effect of caffeine on weight loss.
