Google Cloud is sponsoring the compute for the Open Targets hackathon!
There is now a waiting list to attend the event in person, but project submissions and online registrations are still open.
The two-day hackathon will explore data, analyses, and tools for target discovery

🧬 The latest Open Targets Platform release includes the first genetic evidence for ESR1 in osteoporosis
ESR1 is a known target for osteoporosis, with approved drugs such as Estradiol, but this is the first time we have genetic evidence for this association

Really nice to finally see, imo, a proper readable/reusable way to implement RSC gradually
Check it out - RSC in React Router!
Been working on this with @ebey.bsky.social and @markdalgleish.com for a little bit - pumped for folks to start playing with it!

Happy with the latest improvements in OpenTargets associations on the fly for the September release.
A lot of work was put into improving user experience with a new FocusState component, as well as more incremental features such as the Facets filtering and target-interactors UI development #dataviz
