I am excited to share our preprint describing a collaborative effort to identify conditionally distinct signals in the largest adipose eQTL dataset to date (AdipoExpress)! @kerrin_small, @klmohlke, Laura Scott, @Julia_Moustafa, @mikelove, and others. 1/8

The UNC Department of Genetics is recruiting tenure-track faculty!
TT faculty position open at UNC-CH @UNC_SOM, search for individual:
“focused on cutting edge experimental mammalian genetics and/or genomics. … may have a comp. component, but experim. data generation should be at the foundation of the research program”

ACE2 expression in #adipose tissue is associated with cardio-metabolic risk factors and cell type composition – implications for #COVID19 @Julia_Moustafa, @Kerrin_Small, @klmohlke, @sarahbrotman rdcu.be/cOBO3
Thanks @joshuawknowles for the invite and all for the great discussion!
The great @klmohlke @StanfordDRC seminar series! Going from association to causal gene to mechanism in adipose biology! Next time in person! @SvenssonLab @annagloyn @Autobasque @sbmontgom @UNCDeptMedicine

Check out all of the adipose eQTL colocalizations with GWAS signals for BMI, waist-hip ratio, diabetes, and lipid traits that @RaulieSci identified
New today! An analysis of adipose gene expression by Mohlke & colleagues uncovers hundreds of candidates
for cardiometabolic traits, paving the way for many new avenues of research bit.ly/2lRusS6
Today we bid farewell to superstar @Cnspracklen on her way to join the faculty @BiostatEpiUmass @UMassSPHHS. Cassie has been tremendously productive and made a positive impact on the lab. We look forward to her future discoveries!
