Thank you so much!! 🙏😁

Now: @jsdron.bsky.social (JD): Age- and BMI-dependent genetic architecture of blood lipids in 2.5 million individuals from globally diverse populations #ASHG25 🧪🧬🖥️

Can’t believe #ASHG25 is finally here! Excited to share what I’ve been working on as lead analyst for the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium 🧬👩‍💻

Join me at the Plenary Session on Friday, Oct 17 (5–6:30 PM) — I’ll be presenting some unpublished results from our genome-wide interaction study 👀

Can’t wait to see what you and Anvita put together for 2027! 👀🤩

MPG Primer: A Practical Primer on Bayesian Statistics (2025) YouTube video by Broad Institute

The most math equations written on a whiteboard by a clinician I've seen - yet amazingly well delivered to a broad audience!
S. Urbut's talk @broadinstitute.org A Practical Primer on Bayesian Statistics youtube.com/watch?v=jcFS...
@mgbresearch.bsky.social @harvardmed.bsky.social

They talked a lot about “early-career” scientists in their press release. Hopefully it will be a mix of postdocs and investigators!

On their website, there is a link now to express your interest in “Canada Leads”, but it is asking about interest to be a postdoc… 🤦‍♀️

Just wanted to remind folks of the upcoming abstract submission deadline for the 2025 Human Genetics and Genomics GRS on March 30! 🧬

Come join us in beautiful Portland, Maine from July 5-6!

Our review led by @jsdron.bsky.social of the contributions of the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium (www.lipidgenetics.org) journals.lww.com/co-lipidolog...

The breadth and impact of the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium - PubMed The GLGC has significantly advanced the understanding of the genetic basis of lipid levels and serves as the leading resource of GWAS summary statistics for these traits. Continued collaboration will ...

PS the review will be open-access soon!

🌎🌍🌏 Also, to all the GLGC collaborators out there: please comment or repost to let folks know you’re part of the community! I'd love to follow more lipid genetics enthusiasts 👀

The GLGC is a global collaboration of 100s of scientists interested in lipid genetics. Check out our recent review, where we highlight 🔑 contributions from the GLGC across the last 15 years.

This was such a fun review to put together 🤓

The Catalog isn't just a knowledgebase and source of polygenic scores, we also provide open-soruce tools to make PGS calculation easier and more reproducible! You can find our pgsc_calc tool on github (github.com/PGScatalog/p...) with extensive documentation (pgsc-calc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

Let's start with introductions! The PGS Catalog is an open database of polygenic scores and the relevant metadata required for accurate application and evaluation. Everything is on our website www.PGSCatalog.org, and our newest publication describes how far we've come: rdcu.be/d1vTG since 2019!

Awesome resource! Thanks for assembling! 😁

🎨 In case anyone need…

The NIH BioArt Source is an awesome library of *free* professionally drawn illustrations for scientific presentations or figures. Downloadable in HD. Thank you NIH for this invaluable tool 🙏!

I’ll be speaking (virtually) at the Medical and Population Genetics Seminar @broadinstitute.org tomorrow at 9:30 AM with Dr. Jason Flannick and colleagues. If you’re at the Broad, please join us!

Started a list of early career folks in human genetics! 🧬

Set this up while waiting in line for a tea, so i just added a random few folks to start. Please nominate others and I’ll add throughout the day!
