Really cool work from @jacquesml.bsky.social and @kash-a-patel.bsky.social 🥳
24% common variant heritability for a rare disease (MODY)!
This very elegantly shows the overlap between MODY and T2D, and hints at some potential MODY phenocopies

Now out in @natmetabolism.nature.com! Excited to share our work showing how common genetic changes shape how diabetes presents in MODY (Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young). Our findings highlight the growing overlap between monogenic and polygenic forms of diabetes.

MODY is prevalent in later onset diabetes. Really proud to announce the release of a preprint of our paper assessing MODY in people diagnosed with diabetes later in life!!

Really proud of this Exeter–Stanford collaboration identifying bi-allelic variants in PAX4 as a novel cause of transient neonatal diabetes—the first new genetic cause of this subtype described in over a decade. This work expands our understanding of beta cell development.

New preprint out now! We show polygenic background shapes GCK-MODY clinical presentation. In >1,000 cases, higher polygenic risk increased the chance of exceeding diagnostic diabetes thresholds, highlighting how monogenic & polygenic factors jointly shape disease. #Genetics
