Cross-cohort analysis of expression and splicing quantitative trait loci in TOPMed
Most genetic variants associated with complex traits and diseases occur in non-coding genomic regions and are hypothesized to regulate gene expression. To understand the genetics underlying gene expre...

Fantastic to have our preclinical study led by Richard Voit and colleagues on a universal gene therapy approach for #DiamondBlackfanAnemia by regulated GATA1 expression published earlier this week: www.cell.com/cell-stem-ce...

Regulated GATA1 expression as a universal gene therapy for Diamond-Blackfan anemia
Gene therapy for Diamond-Blackfan anemia is constrained by dozens of causative mutations. Voit and colleagues develop a universal gene therapy through erythroid-lineage-restricted expression of GATA1 ...

Trying to be better with sharing work on here 😅 Check out our paper that identifies novel immune-mediated risk factors for glioma. We also found interesting genetic associations with survival and features of the tumor immune microenvironment 🧬 🧠
