Super excited to share our paper “A genome-wide association study identifies an African-specific locus on chromosome 21q22.12 associated with Burkitt lymphoma risk and survival”. This work should encourage more studies to understand the genetic basis of BL nature.com/articles/s4137…

Pleased to announce that our paper has now been published in Nature Communications: doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

Our TWAS analyses in four normal and tumor #kidney transcriptomes and 48 GTEx tissues identified several important genes with relevance to #renal cell carcinoma overall and its subtypes. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @Diptavo @NCIChanock

.@HGGAdvances sat with @Diptavo, PhD in the latest Inside HGGA to discuss his recently published paper, “Subset-based method for cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies improves power and interpretability.” ➡️ashg.org/hgga/inside-hg… #ASHG #GeneticsDiscoveries



Online today in @NatureGenet is a multi-ancestry #GWAS of renal cell carcinoma #RCC that identifies 50 novel loci, subtype specific loci for clear cell and papillary subtypes, and an African ancestry-specific association at VHL. nature.com/articles/s4158… @NCIEpiTraining #NCI_ITEB
