New paper just out (online first) in Arthritis & Rheumatology! 🎉

We mapped the epigenetic changes (DNA methylation) in GCA-affected arteries. Largest cohort to date; findings point to new pathways relevant to disease mechanisms 🧵

To be part of the 19th SSc Workshop in Cambridge was an amazing experience! It was a privilege to have had the opportunity to give a talk about massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs). And with that… it’s summer time! 🌞✨
¡DESPEDIMOS el curso con una gran felicitación a nuestros compañeros @javiml221098.bsky.social, Marialbert Acosta-Herrera, Carlos de la Rosa Báez e @inmaculadaroma.bsky.social del IPBLN por su notable presencia en el 19th International Workshop on Scleroderma Research! 👏🎊🥳🎉

If you want some immune cells for your slides, here’s what you’re looking for🙌🏻
🎨🔬 I just released some simple immune cell illustrations I've made over time for my talks, for anyone to use in their talks, teaching, or outreach!
No attribution required, just not for commercial use.

SOOOO MANY GENOMICS MODELSSSS! 😱 Often unclear which is best since they benchmark differently! In this preprint, we introduce GAME, a new framework that utilizes APIs to enable sustainable, uniform model evaluation so we can see which is actually best for each task. doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Last day of EULAR! Here's a thread 🧵 of my (very personal) takeaways from #EULAR2025 on giant cell arteritis (GCA)! Keep in mind that as someone focused on basic research, my EULAR schedule was definitely biased in that direction #GCA #rheumsky

One thing still missing in many GWAS pipelines: chrX analysis... In this study from @ajhgnews.bsky.social, Mefford et al. explore X-GWAS across 48 UKBB traits and as expected, ~3% of trait heritability comes from chrX.
Looks like it’s time we start doing this! www.cell.com/ajhg/fulltex...
Role of X chromosome and dosage-compensation mechanisms in complex trait genetics
We show that the X chromosome, understudied in genome-wide association studies, contributes to complex traits in a manner shaped by dosage-compensation mechanisms. We find near-full X inactivation bal...
