Excited to finally share my recent preprint with @struangrant.bsky.social!
www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
We collected chromatin accessibility QTLs (caQTLs) from 10 different studies and observed that they are less depleted at selectively constrained genes compared to eQTLs.

A true honor speaking at the 'Festschrift' for my PhD supervisor from many years back. Best wishes to Stuart Ralston!
20 years ago today we first reported the TCF7L2 association with type 2 diabetes @natgenet.nature.com. Much to still figure out for this locus....
