(6/6) Dr. @nscorralfrias.bsky.social will discuss the LAGC-MDD’s meta-analytic GWAS efforts, followed by Dr. @roseannpeterson.bsky.social remarks on the importance of including ancestrally diverse populations in psychiatric genomics. #WCPG2025 #LAGC #PsychiatricGenomics
(4/6) Dr. Amanda Rodríguez-León will share findings from a Puerto Rican cohort (n = 237), showing that COVID-19 stressors were linked to increased MDD/PTSD symptoms and accelerated epigenetic aging, especially among women. #WCPG2025 #LAGC #MDD #PTSD
(3/6) Dr. Gabriela Martínez-Levy will discuss research in a Mexican adolescent cohort (n = 1,134), examining how polygenic scores predict MDD and related traits, and how adversity shapes these genetic effects. #LAGC #WCPG2025
(2/6) Latin America has one of the highest global rates of MDD (~12%) yet remains underrepresented in psychiatric genetics. This session explores new findings addressing that gap through cross-ancestry research. #WCPG2025 #LAGC
What a comeback! Down 4-0 with a 2% win chance, Los Angeles GC stormed back to beat New York GC in OT and clinch a playoff spot! Sahith Theegala, Tony Finau & Collin Morikawa delivered in the clutch for the biggest comeback in TGL history. #TGL #LAGC #PlayoffBound #Golf 🏏
Great diversity week @GamesBeat and at #Vision17. Next up These Amazing Women Speakers at LA Games Conference! #LAGC
I’ll tell you this much: at this year’s #LAGC “games” all but equals “mobile.”
I say this as a console gamer: they are *not* wrong.
Gareth Davis #LAGC The key shift will be from social activity on the "social network" to social activity everywhere <Agree!
RT: @debs @NicoleLazzaro you could probably expand that to all socnets and online community <My Space 1,2,3 approach #LAGC
Gareth Davis #LAGC 5,000 games on Facebook. But b/c long tail games outside the top 10 still do well <My question How well?
Jason Oberfest #LAGC What works on My Space 1. Enable self expression 2. Interact w/friends 3. Discover new entertainment
Gareth Davis #LAGC 60M players every month for top games in Facebook
Nolan Bushnell #lagc His new school gets rid of the classroom and uses video games in the curriculum. WoOT! Level UP!
Nolan Bushnell #lagc The most interesting thing in town for kids MUST be the learning environment. Today school is not.
Nolan Bushnell #lagc Starting a school to change the world. Batch processing kids is wrong. Teacher as mentor and GAMES! ;)
Nolan Bushnell #lagc One thing would do differently: I would have accepted Jobs' offer to buy 1/3 of Apple for $50K.
Nolan Bushnell #lagc I could not get any of the engineers to take Break Out seriously. Put Steve Jobs and Woz on it. :)
Mitch Lasky #LAGC Surprising price point potential $15 = 1,500% sales growth on Steam (quoting Gabe @ DICE conference) <WOW!
Mitch Lasky #LAGC If FB and MySpace become payment processors they will start to look like mobile operators. Interesting bizs
Mitch Lasky #LAGC There's a magic number. The leading company has 15-20% market share, any media.
Mitch Lasky #LAGC; iPhone is great for bit hit w/small teams. Hard for a big company to get defensible 15-10% market share.
32% music industry revenue was from video games last year. #LAGC
#LAGC: Idea from audience: broadcast videos of people playing may be more effective to communicate the "fun." Panel: YouTube
#LAGC: Game trailers better than demos for mediocre or un-fun game titles. Demos will make great games sell better.
Titelman #LAGC: Hollywood marketing budget: 1/3. Games marketing budget: 1/16.
Titelman #LAGC: Every vote counts: Obama optimism trumps old politics. Movies switch from targeting males. Games should do same.
Titelman #LAGC Economy: people dating more spending more times with others, more comedy and escape genres. Value over price (used games)
Ethan Titelman Penn, Schoen & Berland: 4 key trends: social interaction back to basics, every vote counts, consumer are critics #LAGC
