The factors and context that inform parent decision-making around rGS in the #ICU are unique. Our approach to clinical genetics consultations and genetic #counselling must be adapted to fit the context to better support families. @MichaelMackley nature.com/articles/s4143…

21/3 is World Down Syndrome Day! ❤️ As one of the most well-known genetic conditions, it serves as a powerful reminder of the beauty in every individual. Today, we raise our voices for awareness, acceptance, and inclusion "Different Makes Me Amazing!" 🌈 💛 🩵 @eshgsociety

Before you spend $2,000 on an AI course, read this. A lot of people are buying expensive AI courses right now. But honestly, most of them don’t need to. Some of the best AI learning resources in the world are already free. And they’re not built by self-proclaimed AI experts online.They’re created by the companies actually building the models, chips, tools, and infrastructure behind this entire AI wave. If you want to learn AI properly, it makes sense to learn directly from the source. But before that, Check out 100+ such resources shared in this community of 200K+ AI/ML Engineers: codenewsletter.ai/subscribe?utm_… Here's a list of 10 free AI learning platforms from industry leaders: 𝟭 - 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗰: lnkd.in/e5fK7QUA 𝟮 - 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗹𝗲: grow.google/ai 𝟯 - 𝗠𝗲𝘁𝗮: lnkd.in/et6wz-ta 𝟰 - 𝗡𝗩𝗜𝗗𝗜𝗔: lnkd.in/e8aHmFxc (GOATed) 𝟱 - 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁: lnkd.in/ej85NeZc 𝟲 - 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗔𝗜: academy.openai.com 𝟳 - 𝗜𝗕𝗠: skillsbuild.org 𝟴 - 𝗔𝗪𝗦: skillbuilder.aws 𝟵 - 𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗔𝗜: deeplearning.ai 𝟭𝟬 - 𝗛𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗲: lnkd.in/eajVCrvv If you’re serious about learning AI, the biggest difference usually comes from consistency, not another course.

Nice slide of history of Islet (insulin-producing cells) transplants for #Type1Diabetes 🔶️Whole pancreas➡️ 🔶️Islets from deceased donors➡️ 🔶️Stem cell-derived Islets (ie lab grown)+ immunosupression➡️ The future: Immune-protected Islets without immunosupression #ATTD2026

🧪 We performed genome-wide Perturb-seq on >7500 genes; 12% modulated expression of >10 genes Variant➡️CRE➡️gene➡️network: we constructed regulatory cascades from disease-associated variants by integrating both screens, connecting 85 enhancers to 56% of all genes in two steps

🎯 The results help resolve individual immune-related loci (TYK2, DEXI/CLEC16A) and combined disease-relevant biological processes 🦠 We observe shared core immune programs (resp. to virus, T cell activation), but also disease-specific enrichments (tight junction org. in celiac)

🤝 This was a truly collaborative effort bringing together experimental and computational expertise. Many thanks to the whole team, especially my co-lead @DewiMoonen; @SchraivogelS and @LarsMSteinmetz for excellent supervision; and @AndreasGschwind, Stefan Schrod and many others!

🧬 How do immune disease-relevant variants affect gene regulatory networks in CD4+ T cells? 🧪🖥️ We coupled two large-scale CRISPRi screens (>4M cells) to map the downstream cascades of thousands of SNPs More details below 🧵👇 or in the preprint 📖 tinyurl.com/variant2CRE2ge…
