@fg-pgc.bsky.socialI am so happy for the recognition that my PhD supervisor and friend has received. Congratulations Patrik!
Show Post👩🔬👨🔬in October, we @fg-pgc.bsky.social had our in-person meeting at #WCPG2025 in Cancun, Mexico ! We loved strategizing about how we can make #functionalgenomics #tools and #datasets in #mentalhealth useful for all, to understand the biology of genetic risk ! 🧬🧠
Show PostSo, who are the the Functional Genomics Working Group? 🎯Our goal is to understand how genes🧬, cells🦠and molecules💠contribute to psychiatric disorders🧠 We work with other PGC groups and different 'omics data (methylation, cytometry, single cell etc.) to do this🧪 🧵1/3
Show PostThe @fg-pgc.bsky.social is all about understanding how our genetic findings🔬translate into psychiatric conditions 🧠 We have 5 project groups, and we are excited to introduce the✨Functional Validation✨group first! We asked them for a status update and a highlight of the year...
Show PostThe second of our 5 project groups we are thrilled to introduce is the✨Isoforms✨group! Isoforms are different versions of RNA transcripts or proteins🧬 They are a result of splicing✂️during gene expression and are an important part of how one gene can act in different ways!
