I am thrilled to share that my first PhD paper on the first African genetics study on prostate cancer has been published! doi.org/10.1038/s41588…

GenomeIndia is a tour de force project which showed that over a 100 Indian scientists from across 20 institutions and universities came together to catalog the most comprehensive genetic diversity compendium of the Indian population. 1/4

@tetheredtoed1 tagged me into this thread and rather than going down the comments trying to explain to each person what thresholds scientists have to meet to get federal funding, let me explain it in one thread.

5/5 🌟Many thanks to all the coauthors, @UjaniHazra @AgalliuIlir, my advisor, Joe Lachance, and the MADCaP consortium, especially @TimRebbeck, for their invaluable mentorship.

4/5 🔬These findings can enhance prostate cancer risk models and inform personalized screening for men of African descent. Moreover, our research highlights the critical need for diverse representation in genetic studies to advance global health outcomes.
