Go Spurs! Great to see them win a trophy after all the years of drought. I’m sure the press room will be busier than when I was there as a tourist 🤣

Khanh Trang in our @elife.bsky.social paper integrates 3D genomic maps for >50 diverse cell types with pediatric obesity GWAS. Findings implicate a role for pancreatic islet cell types. Our #V2G mapping nominates effector genes. @penngenetics.bsky.social

Another MS Society #citytoshore in the bag! It was a good cycle ride yesterday - but a bit tougher than usual given suboptimal weather

From the @cambupenn.bsky.social thesis work of Sheridan Littleton, we share in #STARProtocols our methodology to study cis-regulatory activity of GWAS loci for specific gene promoters in human primary astrocytes using luciferase reporter assay.
