🚨New preprint is out!

How do genetic effects on complex traits change with age? In this work, we compare different approaches to obtain age-varying genetic effects, and show how design and modeling choices can impact the conclusions we draw.

Design and model choices shape inference of age-varying genetic effects on complex traits
Understanding how genetic influences on complex traits change with age is a fundamental question in genetic epidemiology. Both cross-sectional (between-subject) and longitudinal (within-subject) appro...

Happy to share our new study on genetic & environmental contributors to age-related decline in ~100K UK Biobank participants!

Here, we used simulation work + longitudinal GWAS and downstream analyses to explore risks involved in cognitive/physical decline

Combining cross-sectional and longitudinal genomic approaches to identify determinants of cognitive and physical decline - Nature Communications
Large-scale genomic studies focusing on the genetic contribution to human aging have mostly relied on cross-sectional data. With the release of longitudinally curated aging phenotypes by the UK Bioban...
