We had a great conference session on the Placental Clock DREAM challenge at the RSG meeting at the University of Madison, Wisconsin. The top performers were Herdiantri Sufryana (right), Tushar Patel (middle) and Ibrahim Alsaggaf (screen). Domain knowledge won the day!

September is Sickle Cell Disease Awareness Month! According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), SCD is one of the most common inherited blood disorders in the U.S., affecting approximately 100,000 Americans and more than 20 million people worldwide. Let's spread awareness and support those affected. #SickleCellAwareness #SupportTheFight

For those interested in data science and pregnancy research, there is still time to join the Placental Clock DREAM Challenge synapse.org/placentalclock for a chance to contribute to a manuscript and receive support to present at iscb.org/rsgdream2024 conference! @DR_E_A_M @iscb

It was great to introduce the Placental DREAM Challenge at the Bioconductor conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan. You still have time to join the challenge and test your approaches to data imputation and/or predictive modeling with omics data. ⁦⁦⁦@WSUResearch⁩

Excited that I can finally say that our #NFRF was funded! Can’t wait to work with @BZhangLab and @RahaSquared on developing cellular models of placental dysfunction using placenta on a chip model developed by B Zhang lab!
1/3 📣 Today, the #GC announced over $92M in funding to support 165 research projects under the #NFRF International Joint Initiative for Research in Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation, and the NFRF 2023 Exploration competition. Learn more: canada.ca/en/research-coordi…

So excited to launch the Placental Clock @DR_E_A_M Challenge to create epigenetic models that could aid in deciphering the role of accelerated aging in obstetrical disease. @gauravbhatti @nardhygomez @jakealbrecht @NimaAghaeepour @msirota84 @AJOGEd_RR synapse.org/placentalclock

The United States continues to have one of the highest rates of maternal mortality among developed nations, especially for families of color. This stark inequality underscores the critical importance of ensuring better access to quality healthcare, culturally sensitive healthcare providers, and comprehensive support services for expectant families. #KEEPHERPOSTED #BlackMaternalHealthWeek
