Excited to share our Nature Genetics Research Briefing on how the repetitive genome helps shape leukemia stemness. We found that transposable elements sustain stem-like states in AML and predict patient outcomes. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Alterations of chromatin state at transposable elements rewire stemness in acute myeloid leukemia - Nature Genetics
By mapping chromatin accessibility over transposable elements (TEs) across normal hematopoietic cells and the various cell types of primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML), we identified TE subfamilies w...

1/ My PhD work is finally out in @natgenet.nature.com ! 🎉 We introduce SelectSim and map co-mutations across >70,000 tumors and 100+ cancer types and subtypes. Cancer mutations do not act in isolation; their combinations can shape tumor evolution. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Evolving patterns of co-mutations from tumor initiation to metastatic progression - Nature Genetics
SelectSim uses cancer and healthy tissue sequencing datasets to identify co-mutations that occur more or less frequently than would be expected by chance. Differences in co-mutation patterns observed ...

The home has its own kind of peace. Not the kind that stops work, but the kind that slows the noise enough for you to see life a little more clearly. #break #peace #life #randomthoughts

Evolution is magnificent, but if humanity is its highest achievement, then perhaps the measure of greatness is flawed, shaped by the same pretension with which humans crown themselves. #random #thought #science #rambling

Went to a genaigenesis.ca hackathon after 8 years 🤖 Felt old. Felt lost. Built anyway. And somewhere in between the code, coffee, and chaos.. I remembered why I started building in the first place 💭 Wrote about this experience here: 👉 arvindkiyer.com/mixomania/20... #AI #Hackathon #Learning #GenAI

After a long spell of procrastination, I’ve finally re-started something close to my heart "Mixomania". It’s a space where I’ll be sharing a mix of poems, deep dives into science aka computational biology and cancer genomics, and the occasional personal ramble or neural musing.
