Kristin performed CPR on her husband, Will, until EMTs got his heart beating again with an AED. Now, as @DGlaucomflecken and @LGlaucomflecken they're advocating for patients and co-survivors, promoting CPR and AED awareness, and making millions laugh. #CPRWeek

How to test the functional impact of noncoding variants in vivo? Happy to share our work led by @ewholling where we developed dual-enSERT, a new method that enables rapid, quantitative comparison of human enhancer variant activities in live mice. Check this Tweetorial for details
Much of human disease-linked variation maps to regulatory regions. Yet, our ability to test the effects of these noncoding variants remains limited. In our new @biorxiv preprint, we asked if we could begin to chip away at this bottleneck: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 1/
