For many traits there is a correlation between the number of duplications or loss-of-function (LoF) mutations someone carries, and their phenotype. Curiously, for most traits, these effects are aligned in the SAME direction. Why?

Lastly, I’d just like to thank my mentors and friends who have helped in this process. This includes the mentors above, but especially Casey (@casey6r0wn ) who isn’t with us anymore, but was essential in me to pursuing a PhD. So thanks and hope you enjoy this work!

In total, we reaffirm the germline genetics role on prostate cancer risk, find that neighborhood deprivation may influence prostate cancer etiology, and conclude these two variables largely act independently in their associations with PCa. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

HLA is the locus that everyone loves to hate, so it rarely gets invited to the GWAS party... There’s good reason for this. The region has extensive LD, high gene density and high polymorphism. (Thread + preprint link below ⬇️) (1/8)

So excited to share our work describing our experience creating & teaching a class on genetics,ethics, & society! tl;dr- bioethics education on relationship between science/scientists/society is impactful, something students want, and important for structural change in our field
Roshni Patel@RoshniAPatel

thrilled to share @raungar's and my paper on our genetics + ethics course! still shocked, awed, and incredibly grateful that our little idea grew into a full-fledged course and accompanying paper cell.com/cell-genomics/…

2nd tweet of the day (very exciting)! As some of you know, I'm running for the Trainee Director position on the @GeneticsSociety (ASHG) Board of Directors. I'm passionate about service, advocacy, and education, and this is my way to continue serving the Human Genetics community.

If you are a member of ASHG, consider voting for me. I know a few things and I think there's some good I could do in this position. Alright, back to avoiding twitter for a few months
