We offer an individual-level interpretation of polygenic score (PGS) transferability across genetic ancestries: PGS accuracy varies individual-to-individual across the genetic-ancestry continuum, even in populations usually labeled as homogeneous. 1/ nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Very excited to see isoTWAS published today in @NatureGenet! Big power gains for complex trait mapping via multivariate modeling of isoform-level regulation, particularly in brain. Fantastic effort led by @bhattac_a_bt & collab with @bpasaniuc rdcu.be/dsrzZ

I'm writing a molecular perspective on heritability, behavior, (and eventually) race/ancestry, group differences. The idea is to start with what we've learned from genetic data and then work backwards to what we used to know from classical studies. gusevlab.org/projects/hsq/

Very excited to share this work by @JingyouR that is the first in a hopefully very long collaboration with @willowcoyote! Hard to believe this started ~ a year ago during lunch at a @HHMINEWS meeting! xitter.cf/JingyouR/status/171899…

There's still time to apply! Our TT [open rank] position for a _computational_ geneticist at UCLA closes Oct 31. Apply if you focus on any computational genetics work and ignore the pigeon holing in the application. Feel free to reach out with questions. recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF0848…
