Congrats to Anneke for "Disentangling genetic effects on transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene regulation through integrating exon and intron expression QTLs", significantly expanding the set of genetic variants known to modulate gene-expression: rdcu.be/dG6Kx

@lpachter @jnovembre Good one! Hard to believe that we published this PCA 15y ago. What many don’t know that these PCs represent mostly Swiss subjects whose grandparents had immigrated from all over Europe to Lausanne.

So apparently in 2023 principal component analysis latent spaces can be said to have an "internal world model" (figure from @jnovembre et al., 2008). Turns out that the "singular" in singular value decomposition refers to the singularity!

🔥Deadline's approaching for QB #PhD hiring call @unil @dbc_unil @cig_unil : tinyurl.com/4k2fz9yr #PhDposition #phdlife Check out all the research groups with open positions this year: get to know us, get to work with us! 🧵1/3

@ODelaneau All the best for your next rocket stage at RGC. They clearly have superb headhunters and, I suspect, the kind of data that only few can deal with efficiently … so this looks like a perfect match!

🎉 Thrilled to share a major career update! 🎉 I'm honored to join the Regeneron Genetics Center as Director in Statistical Genetics. Sad to bid farewell to Lausanne, but eager to contribute to the groundbreaking research done at the RGC! 🧬🖥️📊

Team “DBC United” at the ⁦@FBM_UNIL⁩ Football Tournament 2023. The team was on an ascending trajectory culminating on a draw against ⁦Dos Elefantes Elegantes (@DEE_UNIL)⁩ ! According to some observers, it could be a strong contender in next year’s edition! ⚽️💪👏🤠

Hey @easyJet @easyJet_press, how can you email us at 18:00 on the June 22 to say Flight Club rules do not allow name changes on the next day? This is the best way to loose your best customers!

@easyjet @easyJet_press should be ashamed of yourselves. You email change to Flight Club 1700 yesterday to come into effect today. Staff member just confessed you then only had 3 people answering calls before closing at 2000 and couldn't cope. However, won't allow changes today.

Hey @easyJet @easyJet_press how can you email us at 5:00 tonight to say Flight Club rules change TOMORROW?? I need to make a name change but you’ve given me no notice/opportunity to do so. That’s very poor customer service.

Here’s our latest publication aiming to provide a platform for gene and pathway annotation from GWAS: track.smtpsendmail.com/9032119/c?p=gf…

"embed figures rather than putting them at the end". Finally, yes! There is ZERO justification for figures at the end. It dates from when we had to build physical figures and add them to the text printout. SAME FOR THE LEGENDS. No reason to separate them.

How do hair cells in the inner ear form such an organized pattern? Really excited to share our recent work in @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s4146…. Amazing work led by Roie Cohen and Liat Amir-Zilberstein from the lab in collaboration with @KarenAvraham @ftsven @fumio_matsuzaki
