Love science. Senior Editor @Nature, previously @NatureComms. If it's not science, I'll probably be in the gym or the kitchen (also science). All views my own.

How do the #genome, #epigenome and #transcriptome co-evolve in colorectal #cancer? In the second of two papers in @nature, we find gene expr is not strongly heritable & evaluate "driverness" of muts directly in patient tumours nature.com/articles/s41586-0… @AndreaSottoriva #EPICC2 1/7

How do the #genome, #epigenome & #transcriptome co-evolve in colorectal #cancer? In the 1st of 2 studies in @Nature we measure the contribution of #chromatin accessibility in #cancer #evolution. #genetics and #epigenetics interplay! #EPICC1 @trevoragraham nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Today we publish 1st @HumanPangenome Reference Consortium primary research paper @Nature. Highlights: Near #T2T complete & error-free diploid human genome; phasing haplotypes in assembly graph is best; 50% of total genetic variation is in the centromeres nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Most recent work from the lab just out @Nature. By combining ancient DNA work, population genomics, and in vitro infections we show that the Black Death shaped the evolution of immune genes. Kuddos to co-first authors @TaurVil and Jennifer Klunk. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

We have some awesome genomics papers online @nature - a first step towards a more representative human reference genome, an ancient DNA study on the social organization of a Neanderthal community and an ancient DNA study on the evolution of immune genes during the Black Death

The analysis of ancient DNA from individuals who lived before, during and after the Black Death pandemic gives clues to how exposure to pathogens may have shaped the make-up of immune genes go.nature.com/3ySFM2A

Today online @nature is this incredible GWAS for height, including 5.4 million individuals and identifying over 7,000 loci - the associations reach saturation in the European ancestries go.nature.com/3eouEU5
