So @Theodysse's plan for September was to write a PhD thesis, move to other end of the country, start a new job and he did it! Congrats on defending your thesis and thank you to @GBSchw @nicolesoranzo and Tim Hales for not making it easy for him! Proud to be part of your journey!

Really happy for @aline_real25 to be getting this out. Major implication for me is I've always assumed gwas hits will be explained by expression as it has to mediate then. But here @aline_real25 shows these expression effects can take many forms, not all picked up by common tech

I am excited to share our new preprint with @anavinuela, @AnnaRamisch, @arnsbr, and @dermitzakis! We used direct RNA long-read seq on 60 LCLs from the 1000 Genomes Project to study genetic regulation of transcript abundance & RNA modifications (m6A). researchsquare.com/article/rs-461….

He also trained for and ran a marathon while writing up, because what's the point of a PhD of you don't do it on hard mode

Now that he's done celebrating, I'd like to add that there's something lovely work in his thesis, and hopefully we'll be sharing it more widely in the coming days!

@anavinuela @Miss_Salmonella @Hjorvik Boring answer, depth we use for measurements, never profound, but a person or fact can have depth of it's not all surface, i.e. profound. And breadth we say about someone who's got a wide set of interests, but if we said someone had width, that's not complimentary!

Just saw someone get reversed Say Anythinged. Car drives up, window in flat opens and romantic music starts playing. "Youse are an embarrassment" girl yells up. "I dinnae care!" comes the response.

Taking a breather from his PhD, @Theodysse has looked at gene prioritisation methods with pharma friends. Looking at a whole range of diseases, he finds gene properties are more replicable than genetic info, find OMIM/exome genes + he also knows a lot about where the biases are!

For starters, @DavidDavtian1 has been looking at twas for type 2 diabetes. His conclusion, go tight on the genetics and disease and you can be sloppy on the tissue cell type, may not be universally accepted at this conference.

@hakyim @Y_Gilad That's really fantastic Haky, and good to know a university has its head screwed on right. Really looking forward to seeing the great stuff you're going to produce!

Along with the @FinnGen_FI flagship paper, an amazing team effort and demonstration of the power of Finnish biobank data, I’m excited to present two papers from my team using the same resource also out today 1/n
FinnGen@FinnGen_FI

Since initiation in 2017, @FinnGen_FI study has developed into one of the world’s leading biobank-based genomic research projects. The research papers just published in @Nature are a convincing demonstration of the opportunities unique to Finland. finngen.fi/en/power-genet…

To any German speakers out there with an opinion on our group name, yes, we know. But congrats to @aline_real25 @dafniMichalet @DavidDavtian1 @Theodysse , it's very cool to see all the hard work pay off. See it in Thursday's 3pm poster session
David Davtian@DavidDavtian1

And also go checkout the work of my fellow members of the HODeN team : @dafniMichalet sharing her great results , @anavinuela and @arnsbr (presenting respectively @aline_real25 's and @Theodysse 's amazing work) !
