He/him. G3 @VanderbiltMSTP studying human genetics. @Stanford ‘21. Suns and Cardinals fan. Views are my own.
We are excited to share our work on "closing the loop" 🔄 - a framework enabling single-cell foundation models (scFMs) to learn from experimental validation and dramatically improve their predictive accuracy! (1/n)
So proud of this incredible work from @GauravA_UK from our group with help from many fantastic folks in our lab and inspiring collaborators, including @KharasLab, @AlexBickMDPhD, @yash_pershad, @_ruslansoldatov, @AbdelWahablab. Please check it out 👇👇
What protects individuals from developing blood cancers? Thrilled to share my work in @bloodgenes lab, describing inherited resilience protecting blood stem cells from clonal hematopoiesis by modifying RNA regulation. 🧵👇(1/n) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Great to have @Rbaltman with us at @vumcdbmi for Grand Rounds right now. If you’re having FOMO, that’s understandable and appropriate 😉, but recording to follow.

How reliable is plasma cell-free DNA for detection of clonal hematopoiesis? Would love to chat about it tonight at the #EHA25 poster session! Poster PS-2315 :)
Remarkable work by @yash_pershad and team on CHIP dynamics over 16 years in ~7,000 women out now in @BloodPortfolio! Longitudinal CHIP studies remain rare - this depth of follow-up is invaluable. Correlates and Consequences of Clonal Hematopoiesis Expansion Rate: A 16-Year…
I am thrilled to share our new publication in @eClinicalMedicine co-led with a superb @VUMChealth IM resident James Brogan: "Incident cytopenia and risk of subsequent myeloid neoplasm in age-related clonal hematopoiesis" sciencedirect.com/science/articl… We analyzed 805,249 participants…
Thank you @AMIAinformatics for an having me for another fun Translational Bioinformatics Year in Review! #YIR25 #IS25 Here are the slides of the top papers of the year: …tonettilab-resources.s3.amazonaws.com/TBI-Year-in-Re…
It was quite a lot of fun writing and talking about CAR-T therapy for autoimmune disease for #RheumMadness with Dr. Reese and @gmaldonadovelez! Go B-cell busters 😎 Check out our scouting report: sites.duke.edu/rheummadness/2… Check out the paper: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38381673
