Looking for a postdoc position in the Netherlands and surrounding region in October · PhD student in computational genetics at @ebi.embl.org Cambridge Uni working with @ewanbirney.bsky.social · Previously @scilifelab.bsky.social MPI_evolbio UniBO UniPG
Great intro from @ewanbirney.bsky.social to my and Bettina Welz's (from @wittbrodtlab.bsky.social) new preprint, which forms the core of my PhD work. Very excited to see this out and to get as much feedback as possible on it!
New pre-print klaxon: "Discovery and characterisation of gene by environment and epistatic genetic effects in a vertebrate model" led by the excellent Bettina Welz + @saulpierotti.bsky.social from @wittbrodtlab.bsky.social, Felix Loosli, Kiyoshi Naruse and my own lab www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Discovery and characterisation of gene by environment and epistatic genetic effects in a vertebrate model
Phenotypic variation arises from the interplay between genetic and environmental factors. However, disentangling these interactions for complex traits remains challenging in observational cohorts such...
