Aussie prof studying craniofacial conditions (cleft lip/palate, craniofacial microsomia). Genomics, mouse models, dev/cell biol.
Our newest collab paper showing an interplay between common regulatory SNVs and rare coding variants in SHROOM3 in Craniofacial Microsomia is now online ahead of print @genomeresearch.bsky.social: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40234029/. Huge shoutout to Yong-Biao Zhang’s team again.

As always, very happy to have been able to contribute to another great story led by @kaustubhad.bsky.social and Andres Ruiz-Linares.
New paper!

Studying genetics of tooth dimensions isn't so common as measurement is cumbersome. But in our modest-sized study we report many new genes, with one which seems to have been inherited from Neanderthals in (some) Europeans.

Our cool collaborative manuscript reporting haplotype of common variants impacting presentation associated with rare variants. Did reporter assays for 2 SNPs (of 30) in the LD block as they mapped within putative enhancers. Reviewer wants all other 28 tested as “shouldn’t take much effort”. Really?
