New work published in #PLoSGenetics: #Alzheimer’s disease risk alleles in CLU and MS4A4A/6A loci influence the distal expression of type 1 #interferon (IFIT, OAS), complement (C1Q) and phagocytosis genes in monocytes stimulated with interferon-γ.

Finally out: my work mapping the genetic architecture of flight performance in flies! Featuring: @lorin_crawford @standpatsmith @s_ramach @RandLab_BrownU, David Rand, Jim Mossman @EEB_Brown in #PLOSGenetics Press: Paper:

Our oomycete centromere paper is online now #PLOSGenetics. The success of teamwork! A Copia-Like transposon (CoLT) is highly enriched in the P. sojae centromeres, and may be used for prediction of centromeres in other oomycetes!

The richness of the African Ancestry genome is truly amazing. Our newest paper on discoveries in African American Hepatocytes! Great work @Yizhen81426083. @NUFeinbergMed #PLOSGenetics: Discovery of novel hepatocyte eQTLs in African Americans

so excited, humbled, and honored for our work to have made the cover of @PLOSGenetics this month! #plosgenetics read our paper here: #drosophila #cover #dreamcometrue #dialect @GiovanniBosco45 @JBozler

Check out @PLOSGenetics first #TopicsPage by @arvidagren and Andy Clark @ClarkLabCornell on selfish genetic elements. These articles are a hybrid between #PLOSGenetics and @Wikipedia

Really happy to see Aimee Dudley (@YeastGenetics) taking the reigns at #PLOSGenetics. I hope @GregBarsh and I kept it in good shape for her to do exciting things under the “by working scientists, for working scientists” banner.

First paper from our collaboration with Yildiz lab (UCSC). Lon biochemistry + Vibrio biology 🤯 #PLOSGenetics: c-di-GMP inhibits LonA-dependent proteolysis of TfoY in Vibrio cholerae
