A very nice conversation between Emma/Dylan and us was online in Diabetologia. Need to be very careful about what we are instrumenting when conducting drug target MR!

Very nice piece of work from our brilliant PhD candidate Huiling Zhao @leu1226 🌟🌟🌟
Such an honour to be part of GBMI! Great honour to collaborate with big names: Ben Brumpton, Wei Zhou, Ben Neale and Tom Gaunt. Hope this will open the door for multi-ancestry proteome-wide MR.

So excited to see the flagship and 7 more GBMI papers online today. It’s such a honor to work with the great team led by @bmneale, @cristenw, @dalygene, @genetisaur coordinated by @sineadbchapman. Big thanks to biobanks and their participants for making our research possible.
Check out the first studies from the Global Biobank Meta-analysis Initiative @GlobalBiobanks offering guidance on making #GWAS more diverse and representative. Now published in @CellGenomics

New preprint available 🥳
(with @clara_albi, @bpasaniuc, @bvilhjal)
We present a new version of LDpred2-auto and validate it for inference of genetic architecture parameters.
This figure gives a summary of what LDpred2-auto can give you now:
