@tuuliel Congratulations Tuuli! Welcome!

Happy and excited to be elected as a member of EMBO!

@jkpritch @tuuliel_lab @sbmontgom I think it is not very common but not too rare either. The caveat with this analysis is that, frequently, genes to be tested are filtered for a level of expression in a large fraction of individuals. Such filtering will drop these "ectopic" expression cases due to a variant.

@tuuliel_lab We looked for this type of thing using QTL mapping many years ago and didn't find clear examples... but if it exists I think it would be more likely to show up with rare expression outlier approaches in the style of @sbmontgom

Anyone? We've done some work looking at expression level vs eQTL effect size across tissues for GWAS loci (see GTEx 2020. TL;DR it's complicated). We didn't look specifically for these situations though; my gut feeling is that it's rare.

@benoitbruneau It has happened to my papers several times and I have seen it for other back-to-back papers too. And yes you are right, the American lab is almost always cited more.

It’s either ignorance of the field (doubtful esp back to back) or intentional omission. Both are bad. Oh and 100% of the time (as these are only two of so many) American lab is cited European not.

pet peeve: if there are two contemporaneous papers reporting a discovery, and especially back to back, why do some people cite only one? In two papers this week with 90 and 85 references an additional one would be OK. And no, not mine.

@1RabP @LouisePrinjha Happy belated birthday @1RabP !

Having a wonderful late birthday weekend. Saw an amazing jazz production of Nutcracker at the South Bank Tuff Nut Jazz Club venue. With @LouisePrinjha

Looking forward to seeing you there to discuss the future of Genomics in Pharma! #ASHG2023

@ceclindgren is the other place Cambridge maybe?

Anyone have an invite for the other place - pretty please 🙏

It is so great and refreshing to see so many young and promising scientists announce that they have received the @ERC_Research starting grant. Brings back good memories 🙂 and importantly highlights that the future of science is in good hands. Congratulations everyone!!

One of the most impactful papers from my academic lab, and probably the last great one, bringing together principles and knowledge obtained over many years to dissect disease mechanisms! Congrats to @anavinuela @arnsbr and @DIRECTdiabetes

Congratulations @NancyGenetics for the #ASHG leadership award. So well deserved and long overdue!

@molly_przew Many congratulations for the very much deserved #ASHG scientific achievement award!

@ewanbirney maybe font is very very small 🙂

I’m sure I speak for many a genomicist that the thing that really bugs me about this video is how small the stack of DNA is. It needs to be a floor to ceiling bookshelf some 20 books long !

@robert_a_scott You think? 😉

Clearly the best city in the world for #ESHG2023, although I might be a wee bit biased.

So proud to see @swissgenomics in #ESHG2023 this year! My friends and colleagues are continuing the impactful work we started together!

@swissgenomics Very happy to see that! Too bad I will not be there this year

@Y_Gilad @alexisjbattle Why is that even a question??

@alexisjbattle I'd say if it evolved, it's no longer the same work... so the answer is 'no'.

For ASHG abstracts "Has the work outlined in this abstract been accepted for oral presentation at another conference prior to June 8, 2023?" - any input on how close a previous presentation would be to need to answer yes to this? Long term projects evolve a lot #ASHG23

@dennis_the_frey where is that???

Yes. Go ahead. Please explain those relationships.

@JeremyFarrar Beautiful Geneva! I hope you are enjoying your time there

Well being, a privilege & with it a responsibility. On this Saturday evening a joy.
