My book, An Intuitive Primer on Effective Functional Genomics Study Design, is published! I’d really appreciate it if you could help spread the word, and I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback. I hope people will find it useful.
It’s available on Amazon: tinyurl.com/mx2hewen
Staff scientist position (computational):
I am looking for a computational scientist to join my genomics lab at Stanford. They should have an outstanding skillset in ML/statistical methods for genomic applications, postdoc experience and a strong publication record.

New work in #GENETICS from @fabiomorganz.bsky.social & team showcases an improved polygenic model of blood pressure by determining the impact of numerous lifestyle variables on diastolic & systolic blood pressure & pulse pressure predictions in individuals in UK Biobank. Read more: buff.ly/F4zlqYh
Congrats Jeff! Well deserved!
Congratulations!!!
We share a lot of our ideas, code, datasets (that we spend years sanitizing) early. Often way before we release preprints. We do this so that others can use, build on, improve & even "beat" our approaches. But I want to say a few things about some simple expectations 1/

Congratulations!! 🎉
Hey, a question for the genetics community. Does genetic fine-mapping work well? How often does it miss?
We usually find that most fine-mapped variants do not fall within coding or regulatory regions. Is it a limitation of epigenomics or a limitation of fine-mapping? Please share your thoughts!
