Nice thread on recent work by @LucasDayRIchter estimating the prevalence of psychiatric conditions among patients seeing genetic counselors

I'm slightly biased but you do not want to miss this! Vanderbilt Genetics Institute DBMI at Vanderbilt University

Huge congratulations to the incredibly bright, caring and inspiring Dr. Kang! Thank you for taking a chance on a new lab and helping to shape it with your passion, sense of purpose and kindness.

Excellent thread on a recent preprint that includes substantial advances in understanding the genetic architecture of suicide attempt

New preprint using #MachineLearning and #EHR data to perform a well-powered #GWAS of treatment resistant depression with potential pharmacological implications. More details in this wonderful thread by Jay JooEun Kang, MD PhD

📢New publication in Cell Genomics showing ability for coexpression to proxy #CRISPR perturbation and tissue specific transcriptional convergence of #Autism risk genes. Prior thread below, published version now shows generalizability to other phenotypes. x.com/dmruderfer/sta…

Congratulations to the wonderful Jay JooEun Kang, MD PhD MD, PhD! Incredible scientist, marvelous provider and all around amazing person. So fortunate to be part of your journey. Looking forward to cheering you on in your continued success.

I'm excited to show a preprint of a paper my colleagues and I have been working on for quite some time! Link: medrxiv.org/content/10.110… We aimed to evaluate potential causes of variable performance integrating PRS into clinical prediction -- more details below! 👇

Excited to be part of effort to leverage AllofUsResearch #fitbit #genomics #ehr + #survey data to explore #physicalactivity and incident #obesity across the spectrum of #genetic risk Read here 👇 jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman… Big thanks to #participants
