Our newest lab member - her first first-author paper was accepted before she even officially joined the lab! So excited to see where her thesis work takes her :)
Thrilled to share my first first author project! We used #publiclyavailable #gnomAD constraint metrics and #GTEx expression data to predict 5 #histone-encoding disease candidate genes that have the potential to underly rare Mendelian conditions - rdcu.be/cFEdE
