I very much enjoyed writing this Nature News & Views piece on the RNU4-2 story. Please read on if you want to learn more about how a non-coding variant was discovered to be one of the most frequent causes for developmental diseases. (thx M. Rissom for sketch) nature.com/articles/d4158…

A new preprint from our lab looking at deep learning models of cardiac aging, led by James Brundage , a Sarnoff Foundation fellow working with me and Geoff Tison

Excited to share our latest research on whole-genome doubling (WGD) in cancer! We've uncovered new insights into the proteogenomic landscape of WGD across various cancer types. 🧬🔬

The FDR control does not work. Our overall conclusion is that something is deeply wrong in GRN inference. This is loosely akin to missing heritability: quantitative proof of unknown shared causes of transcript abundance. *(Mumbles pretentiously about "dark matter.")*

reviewers, please stop saying that something is not significant because it is a rare disease that affects a few people. I guarantee you, that to those families, it's all that matters.

Did you know that people tried to prove central limit theorem for over two centuries, first starting with de Moivre (1733), then almost a century after by Laplace who both used binomial distribution. Then it was Poisson who worked on this theorem, and Chebyshev (1890–1891) who

Another mind-blowing discovery from deCODE team. Homozygosity of a loss of function variant (p.Arg162Ter) in CCDC201, an obscure gene that was only recently added to human gene database, is associated with a whopping 9 years earlier onset of menopause. This effect size is

It took me SEVEN years to figure out that you can save a ggplot as a vectorized .svg file ggsave("file.svg"). The svg file can be opened on powerpoint and it will be completely vectorized, even text are still recognized as text boxes! No more recreating plots on illustrator!!!!!

Bonus: the authors have made the results browsable through a web portal. Here is a sample result for GIGYF1 hugeamp.org:8000/research.html?…

I am presenting at #eaasession731 at 12:15! Very excited to hear about interrogative approaches of understanding the Neolithic in SW Asia. Building a little hard to find, enter via the left side of the CNR building then go up the stairs to floor 1/room 103.

Very helpful! But consider colorblind-friendly color palettes 🎨 ggpubfigs only supports colorblind-friendly color palettes, so it is something users don't even need to think about :D github.com/JLSteenwyk/ggp… x.com/tangming2005/s…
