This is an exceedingly late post, but I wanted to share a few pictures from #IGES2025 earlier this fall. I had the honor of giving a platform talk on age-related genetic dysregulation, and I really enjoyed connecting with other researchers and exploring the beautiful city of Cologne!
ποΈ September wrap-up.
The academic year kicked off to a good start! I had a chance to present GenDiP Consortium's latest work, listen to inspiring talks, and connect with brilliant researchers at #IGES2025, #GeneForum2025, and von Baer Seminar. Now, back to the office to dive into new projects! π©βπ»

@jakobwoerner.bsky.social brilliantly outlines tradeoffs btw proteomics scores & polygenic scores in incident disease prediction. Lots of hints from his paper π
