Our new perspective considers a simple tension in medicine: we are good at studying disease once it is visible, and far worse at interpreting the subtle shifts that precede it.
Listening earlier requires new ways of measuring and reasoning. Grateful to be part of this work!
We could prevent diseases so much better but we haven't learned to listen to when biology whispers long (10 + years) in advance. A key theme in Super Agers, too.

Excited to finally have this out! We transformed a tightly controlled study into a platform for population-scale prediction. Massive thanks to @MarcusDGon and @rtamimi for their invaluable expertise in this collaborative scientific effort!
New preprint! Metabolomics signatures of hypocaloric keto/lowfat diets designed in a controlled trial setting showed a positive association with risk of breast cancer when translated to the NHSII prospective cohort #keto #breastcancer medrxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…
AutoFocus, a project YEARS in the making, is finally out in @CommsBio! When clustering multi-omic data, systemic correlation bias focuses on intra-omic clusters and excludes multi-omic interactions - so we designed an algorithm to help change the focus:

New paper out in npj Metabolic Health and Disease! We profiled the molecular impacts of the ketogenic diet simultaneously in plasma and CSF (a first!), showing how dietary changes influence the brain's metabolic environment and Alzheimer's disease risk: doi.org/10.1038/s44324-024-0…
Grateful to be featured!

I don't have a single data processing script in #RStats without maplet. If you're in #metabolomics or really any #omics, check it out!
We are excited to present maplet, an open source R toolbox for modular, reproducible analysis pipelines in #metabolomics, #proteomics and other omics research! Check it out: github.com/krumsieklab/maple… arxiv.org/abs/2105.04305
Guys I made a thread
If you follow me on twitter (@AnnaWeese2), you already know that I recently made a @StackOverflow account. This was a big moment in my life… 2/12

I just made a StackOverflow account. Don't know how to interpret my intense emotions at this moment. Please comment emotional support.

Had a blast working on this cool project - check out our preprint finding biologically meaningful latent representations of #metabolomics data using #deeplearning! @WeillCornell @cbm_student
Excited to share our new preprint! We trained a VAE on large-scale metabolomics data with n=4,500. VAE encodings associate with unseen T2D, schizophrenia, and AML patient groups. Great work by @daniel_gomari and @AnnaWeese2. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #metabolomics #deeplearning

Recognizing your privilege makes you a better mentor and scientist. Science does not happen in a vacuum. Scientists must be aware of how their background affects their work and the work of those around them. Thanks @daniela_witten for making this so clear!
As a professor at a big university, a lot of people come to me for career advice.
Undergrads ask me — how did I decide to become a statistician and go to grad school?
Grad students ask me — what advice do I have for grad school, the job market, and the tenure track??

Testing is a key part of reopening, but an investigation into Texas reveals more than just one of the lowest testing rates — it found that four out of six of the largest cities in Texas had testing sites disproportionately located in whiter neighborhoods. trib.al/M9EM25e

Thank you to the women who make up 77% of frontline healthcare workers in the US.
Many of us owe our lives to the heroic work being done by millions of women.
They define #NewYorkTough.
