Detection of distant familial relatedness in biobanks for identification of undiagnosed carriers of a Mendelian disease variant: application to Long QT Syndrome medrxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #medRxiv
The best way I can imagine to end a week: a tweet from @EimearEKenny complimenting our work leveraging patterns of relatedness to find rare variant carriers and understand their effects! ❤️
Really nice work from @piperbelow group on using long shared haplotypes to detect undiagnosed carriers of a long QT syndrome, and refine estimates of penetrance at a population-scale.

The study aimed identify clinically relevant conditions that co-occur with developmental language disorder at the population level & found both rare and common comorbidities. @CrunchyNeuroSci @piperbelow

I lectured for 90 min in front of 80ish people and attended a full days worth of meetings without ever realizing my shirt was inside out. I believe I have achieved a new level of professoring. Thanks to my insanely kind, wonderful, and patient husband for so gently informing me.
Woohoo! Congratulations Hung-Hsin! This is such a great project; thanks for recognizing his amazing work with this award @genepisociety @VUMCgenetics #IGES22
And the last set of awards we would love to highlight.
The poster award winners! #IGES22
1st place
Hung-Hsin Chen
