The SEGEG 2022 Scientific Meeting and Networking event has officially started, with an introductory talk by Prof KarolineKuchenbäcker! #SEGEG2022

Excited to be at the live in person #SEGEG2022 today UCL - also we recruiting a 3 year postdoc genomics post in the GLADStudy - dm me or find me at lunch break if you want to discuss. jobs.ac.uk/job/COI380/pos…

Kartik Chundru walking us through combined DDD and GeneDx analyses of >40k families with severe developmental disorders, across different ancestries and populations.

Next up Xiangrui Meng on multi ancestry GWAS of depression and the potential they offer for increased discovery #SEGEG2022

Next up we have Joni Coleman talking about fine mapping of MDD loci. Unpublished but exciting work. Specifics not tweetable. #SEGEG2022

Stavroula Kanoni is now speaking at #SEGEG2022 on multi ancestry GWAS of blood lipids

I'm at #SEGEG2022 (I've been here the whole time - earlier sessions summaries later). For now, I'm bedding in for the functional session. First is Megan Buckley talking about functional classification of nearly all SNVs in the gene VHL using Saturation Genome Editing.

High throughput saturation genome editing allows for testing nearly all possible variants by CRISPRing within cell lines. Effects on cells can then be assayed

And the final talk of the day (I don't tweet Q&A / panel sessions because they tend to be more off the cuff). Professor Jennifer Linden will discuss power and pitfalls of neurobiological research in mouse models for schizophrenia #SEGEG2022

Amazing meeting today #SEGEG2022 with excellent talks. Thank you for inviting me! Feels great to be back to f2f conferences. SEGEG: South of England Genetic Epidemiology Group KarolineKuchenbäcker

All in all, a great day. I've missed SEGEG. Was wonderful to be a small part of it, and many thanks to KarolineKuchenbäcker and her incredible team for bringing it back in person with aplomb - Diana Dunca, Maria, and Georgina made it all look smooth and easy, when it is anything but.
