2023 Helmholtz StatGen Workshop off to a fantastic start!

I probably won't have time to make a video out of this.

But the materials are available online, and should be pretty self-explanatory.

Hope this is useful to some people.

If you're at #ASHG25 check out these talks!

And follow this group for a blend of #geneticepi #statgen #compbio
A few programming notes for #ashg25 from trainees in my group @mdanderson.bsky.social + a thread of me being a proud PI. Please drop by these sessions and talk to @taylorhead.bsky.social, @seantbres.bsky.social , @ytchang11.bsky.social, and me in Boston @geneticssociety.bsky.social next week!

Post processing slim outputs towards statgen applications will become so much faster 🥰🥰
Very proud to share our new work on General, orders-of-magnitude faster whole-genome analysis with genotype representation graphs (GRG). We topped ourselves in this one 🚀 and made GRG a practical foundation for biobank-scale population and statistical genetics. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

The Amazing Florian Privé has joined Bluesky. He’s the author of several great R packages in #statgen, including bigsnpr and bigstatsr. 😀
Hello there; anyone else is here? 😃

Very excited to be attending #STATGEN2024! 🧬 🧪 👩‍🔬 💻

Presentations from me + @kasperdhansen.bsky.social's groups @jhubiostat. We've got loads of methods for #spatial #transcriptomics along w/ prediction of #genotypes and #cellcycle and super cool #longread #RNAseq!

The book aims to provide a unified view of human variation, population genetics, human history and trait genetics / GWAS I wrote this partly because I find a lack of suitable readings for teaching, and partly to connect the popgen and statgen world views in an accessible format

Ok GTeX, statgen, and genomics folks— is it possible to estimate eQTLs in an unknown cell type based on scRNAseq, bulk RNA seq, and/or any type of chromatin accessibility data?
August 27, 2025 at 10:39 PM
Great idea. I'm a lecturer (assistant professor) at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. I developed Milo for differential abundance testing in single cell data. My lab sites at the intersection of comp bio, immunology and statgen focused on understanding how ageing remodels the immune system.
