    Thanks so much for the invitation to speak tomorrow at ! I'll talk mainly about our latest paper on complex trait architecture (aka Omnigenic2):

    Plenary sessions have been great so far! Can’t wait for tomorrow’s 8:30a genetic testing in psychiatry 2:30p perspectives on the omnigenic model (w and Naomi Wray). Get there early!

    The Omnigenic Model enters its next stage of life. For the story up till now, see 1. 2. 3. Chapter 9 of my book “She Has Her Mother’s Laugh."

    I am super thrilled to share new work on the Omnigenic model with and ! We've been working on this for a while and we hope that you'll find it interesting!

    "we propose that if the core genes for a trait are co-regulated - as seems likely - then the effects of peripheral variation can be amplified by these co-regulated networks such that nearly all of the genetic variance is driven by peripheral genes" by

    This is a great article explaining how big a breakthrough Kipchoge's 2:01 Marathon was today, as well as his larger legacy. Kipchoge broke the record by a huge 3 sec/mile today (his Nike sub-2 stunt last year was not record-eligible)

    Very nice work by and on a new model-based approach for studying population structure. conStruct allows for both discrete populations as well as continuous spatial variation in a single model, thus reconciling two longstanding types of models.

    Also very pleased and proud that the paper was picked as a Highlight by in the current issue! With Inferring Continuous and Discrete Population Genetic Structure Across Space

    Stanford is renaming some (but not all) campus features named for founder of CA's missions & put out this interesting report. I've been thinking about indigenous peoples a lot lately, being in Australia where things are better / worse in different ways.

    The simple pleasures of working at home for the day: I was lucky today to see three charming birds I very rarely get in my backyard--brown creeper, Nuttall's woodpecker, hairy woodpecker. The two woodpeckers were actually simultaneous.

    Very cool work from the , , and labs studying stimulation response in immune cells using RNAseq and ATAC-seq, finding genetic variants that regulate chromatin accessibility. Great thread explaining the key findings of the study 👇

    PSA for bikers: Please please always wear your bike helmet! Reminded of this yet again as one of my colleagues was knocked off his bike today by a car that ran a stop sign (he's scraped up but ok).

    This important conceptual article provides an elegant classification of the types of roles that transcription factors can play in controlling transcriptional networks.

    Really neat perspectives article out in Genetics today by . It's fun and remarkable to think back to some of the early discoveries in genetics like synteny and understand how they were worked out.
