Our @CoMorMent study identifying genetic, immunometabolic, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors underlying the link between depression and cardiovascular disease in @NatureCVR, with @JoellePasman @oleaandreassen @UnnurAValdimars @mcintosh2001 @cathrynlewis nature.com/articles/s4416…

Congratulations to Dr Cuadros Espinoza @5ebra2850 for the excellent PhD viva on adaptive admixture in humans (supervised by @Etienne_Patin). Thanks to the great jury @ras_nielsen @cschlebu @nbierne @G__Fischer & Cecile Berthouly!

I am happy to announce that our paper “Quantifying the relative importance of genetics and environment on the comorbidity between mental and cardiometabolic disorders using 17 million Scandinavians” is out in @NatureComms! nature.com/articles/s4146… 1/13

New pre-print from the @PGCgenetics #Depression Group: Multi-ancestry GWAS of depression with 685,000 cases identifies 697 independent associations, implicating known & novel drug targets. 🔗 medrxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n

A study of 25,252 Swedish twins indicates that adverse childhood experiences associated with elevated risk of adult psychiatric disorders notwithstanding considerable familial (genetic & early environmental) confounding revealed through MZ/DZ comparisons. ja.ma/4a2h9jW

(1/8) Our cohort profile of the Mental Health online Survey in more than 86,000 Estonian Biobank participants is now out in @IntJEpidemiol! 🎉🧬🧠 We are truly grateful to all participants and the EstBB team for making this study happen 🙏💙 Link: doi.org/10.1093/ije/dy… A thread

We are very honoured to see our study highlighted on the cover of @Nature ! Thanks to @darragh_duffy and our co-autors @BrunoCharbit @vrouilly @AnthonBertrand @MonsieurRoti @jacob_bergstedt @Etienne_Patin @QuintanaMurci @LabExMI @institutpasteur for this great work !

Our study on how smoking changes adaptive immunity with persistent effects is out in @Nature ! nature.com/articles/s4158… Thanks to @darragh_duffy and our co-authors @BrunoCharbit @vrouilly @AnthonBertrand @MonsieurRoti @jacob_bergstedt @Etienne_Patin @QuintanaMurci @LabExMI !!!

More interesting #humanImmunology work from @LabExMI cohort showing epigenetic dispersion and immune variation with age @jacob_bergstedt @darragh_duffy @QuintanaMurci et al @NatureComms rdcu.be/cW4P8

Our #epigenetics study of how cell composition affects EWAS and how it, aging, CMV, and other factors shape blood DNA methylation signatures in the adult population, in @NatureComms. It’s been quite a journey, @Etienne_patin, @QuintanaMurci and @LabExMI. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Happy to share our latest study on the factors (intrinsic, genetic & environmental) driving DNA methylation variation in human blood. A great study led by ⁦@Etienne_Patin⁩, ⁦@jacob_bergstedt⁩ and many others of the ⁦@LabExMI⁩ consortium. nature.com/articles/s4146…

@jacob_bergstedt presenting data from the @CoMorMent consortium on the relationship between cardiovascular disease & #depression

Please RT. Post-doctoral position in single-cell genomics @institutpasteur (Paris) in the @QuintanaMurci lab, to work on the the genetic, epigenetic and evolutionary determinants of immunity-related traits. See: drive.google.com/file/d/1-FyzKT…

Elon Musk should buy 23andMe and release all GWAS summary statistics

Our study with @g_hellenthal on detecting adaptive signals before and after European contact in #admixed Latin Americans is finally out in @MolBioEvol academic.oup.com/mbe/advance-ar…

With a great wine, in a shitty glass, celebrating that I have been awarded a #MSCA fellowship! So excited to start a new project on aDNA with Cosimo Posth and his team at @uni_tue! Thanks everyone that support me!

Please RT: Symposium "Genetic admixture: inference and evolutionary consequences" at the Collège de France @cdf1530, 30-31 May, Paris. Outstanding line up of speakers. IMPORTANT: attendance is free, and no registration needed. Will be in presence. See you in the sunny Paris!
