I am excited to have arrived in Helsinki for @espghansociety.bsky.social Annual Meeting.

I’ll be presenting some more of our biliary atresia data and recording a very exciting in-person version of the ESPGHAN podcast.

Here's a preprint of our work where we found that most genes which cause monogenic, severe liver disease also affect the onset and/or severity of liver-related traits in adults.
[Not yet peer reviewed.]
doi.org/10.1101/2025...
Genes that cause severe liver disease in children also influence risk and severity of common liver conditions in adults
Background and aims Rare, pathogenic variants in multiple genes can cause severe liver disease, requiring transplantation in childhood, but it is unclear whether common variants in the same genes conf...

I remember seeing this work presented last year and it’s stunning.
Why do some patients remain healthy while others develop severe liver complications despite having the exact same genetic mutation in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency?

The real question is ‘will I ever find a paper that Alex (Knisley) thinks is free of major flaws?’

I’m back up in Edinburgh this week learning new spatial techniques and using some very rare paediatric samples.

All round quite exciting.

I _think_ we needed to dilute our samples a bit more

I’m coming to conclusion of a GWAS project and only now truly starting to understand what pruning and fine-mapping means.

And LocusZoom is wonderful.

I like to differentiate between the ‘messing around’ experiments and the ‘proper’ ones.

Much of the time in the lab I’m trying new stuff, testing meddling around with the protocol and seeing if there’s any hint it works. It’s low risk and really fun.

Once upon a time, some villagers came across a large, ornate wooden box in the local woods. On the side of the box was a message:

“Whatever money you put in this box will, in future, grow to become 2.5 times larger.”
