Congratulations to my old boss and friend! Well done John! uclh.nhs.uk/news/uclh-peop…

Fantastic opportunity....for new scientists (<4yr postdoc) to run your own group #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #womeninSTEM #WomenInScience work in AD/ADRD with a commitment to diversity card.nih.gov/job-training-o… card.nih.gov/job-training-o…

Multiple postdoc positions in computational genomics in my group at @theNCI starting January 2022. Possible projects: genome rearrangements and heterogeneity in cancer, comp. metagenomics, genome graphs and more. Or bring your own project! Please RT. jobrxiv.org/job/national-c…

Are you researching #Parkinson's Disease? The 23andMe Research team is looking for collaborations with scientists who share our commitment to "end PD by preventing PD" Submit an application through Jan 14 2022 research.23andme.com/research-innov…

Andrew Singleton (@SingletonNeuro), Director of the Center for Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias (CARD) and Chief of the Molecular Genetics Section (@pdgenetics), will be taking over our twitter account tomorrow Nov. 16. Stay tuned! @ASAP_Research

We are #hiring a leader to provide strategic direction for 23andMe’s Parkinson’s disease research program - PhD w/ >5 years of experience - Expertise with “Big Data” applied to neuroscience - Deep understanding of Parkinson’s disease research landscape 23andme.com/careers/jobs/5…

Today, MJFF announces our latest research opportunity. PPMI is expanding with a new online platform. Your participation could help researchers find better ways to measure, treat and potentially prevent Parkinson’s. Get started today: bddy.me/3rFzPRx

MJFF would like to wish our Founder, Michael J. Fox, a very happy birthday! Thanks to his continued dedication, we're closer than ever to a #Parkinsons cure. To help celebrate his decades of optimism, look back at some of our favorite archived quotes: bddy.me/3g9oN38

GP2 - Global Parkinson's Genetics Program - launching our master's program in Clinical Neurology for doctors from Africa Check out all the opportunities here parkinsonsroadmap.org/gp2/opportunit…

Check out this blog from @ASAP_Research and #GP2 on típs and tricks for #GWAS and basic genetic data analysis. Nice accessible work and minimal tech jargon from @HamptonLLeonard @dan_vitale_ and @ines570 . parkinsonsroadmap.org/understanding-…

The DNA Biobank at the Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Neurológicas is near completion & today we celebrate virtually with our colleagues in Peru. This is such an important step to get us closer to global representation for #GP2Research!! Thanks to @LARGE_PD and @michaeljfoxorg!

A brief correspondence from the team at @IPDGC_Africa highlighting the 'International #Parkinsons Disease Genomics Consortium Africa', with special nod to the input from 2 international patient advocacy organisations: @ParkinsonAfrica & @PdAvengers thelancet.com/journals/laneu…

New @medrxivpreprint manuscript from @HamptonLLeonard & @pdgenetics colleagues demonstrates that the 5’ LRRK2 non-coding GWAS signal rs76904798 is independently associated with #Parkinsons risk from LRRK2 coding variation medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

T-2 days left to apply for @MichaelJFoxOrg's new DEI funding program! Don't miss this new opportunity!

As previously shown by @SingletonNeuro and @mike_nalls this is how the same plot looks like for PD. Again pretty nice correlation, providing a solid foundation for more and larger GWAS!

Biomedical science should serve all people -- we're excited to have a push to represent human diversity in the Human Cell Atlas. chanzuckerberg.com/newsroom/czi-a…

New @biorxivpreprint from @mbmakarious @mike_nalls & @pdgenetics colleagues presents automated machine learning on multi-modal data from the @MichaelJFoxOrg #Parkinsons Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) study, identifying gene communities specific to PD biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are accepting applications for our latest funding opportunity to promote #researchdiversity. To learn more about the funding strategy and program, register for our webinar on March 9 at 12pm. #healthequity #minorityhealth #healthdisparities bddy.me/3t0ahOO

New @pdgenetics paper out: "Investigation of Autosomal Genetic Sex Differences in Parkinsons disease" #parkinsons #GWAS as always massive thanks to all who contributed especially @pdgenetics and @uk_biobank medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
