Dr. Chloé Sarnowski, Ph.D.

When I started writing my first grant, 2 years ago, it seemed like a huge mountain impossible to climb. I was just awarded a K99/R00!! A BIG thank to my mentors. The road to come will be full of mountains but I now know I'll be capable of climbing them. @ProfJoseeDupuis @sudha_md

Five years of work, one big question: Which has a greater impact on aging—our environment or our genes? I'm excited to share our paper published today in Nature Medicine, demonstrating the major role of the #exposome in shaping mortality and #aging. nature.com/articles/s4159…

Happy Birthday to Rosalind Franklin—the brilliant scientist behind the discovery of DNA’s structure! We’re celebrating her legacy today with a fun trivia challenge in our IG Stories. Join us to test your knowledge & honor this legend! 📲 👉 @GeneticsSociety #ASHG #HumanGenetics

I spoke with an NIH program officer yesterday who said that, given the massive 44% cut planned for NIH, they were only planning to award about 12 new grants before the end of the year, which are mainly ones in the 1st and 2nd percentile, so the 3 grants we had with good scores…

From 1 July, researchers funded by the NIH will be required to make their scientific papers available to read for free as soon as they are published in a peer-reviewed journal. Here’s Nature’s guide on what researchers need to know. go.nature.com/4lx3OGl

By analyzing @AllofUsResearch data, @MateusHG13 and colleagues from @AJHGNews' latest article reveal that self-reported race is a poor proxy for genetic ancestry. These findings have major implications for the study of health disparities: cell.com/ajhg/fulltext/… #ASHG

They found a loop hole around the court order to unfreeze NIH funds. Grant review panels cannot be registered with the HHS now and so grants can't be reviewed and hence can't be disbursed. Stalling will have very serious long term consequences. thetransmitter.org/funding/federa…

ASHG is deeply troubled by the recent layoffs at a number of agencies. The impact on scientific progress and innovation is profound and alarming. Read our statement: ashg.org/publications-n…

ASHG is concerned about the cuts to NIH-funded research support, its impacts on biomedical research, & the effect on local, state, and national economies. We join our advocacy partners to ensure essential progress is not stalled. Read our statement: ashg.org/publications-n… #ASHG
