Our paper on longitudinal multi-omics in an aging population is out at @ScienceMagazine
Led by @Julia_Moustafa , we profiled gene expression and metabolomics at 3 timepoints in 335 individuals over 6-8 years to investigate molecular aging trajectories

Excited to share our latest work. We introduce an improved version of NanoSeq, a duplex sequencing protocol with <5 errors per billion bp in single DNA molecules, and use it to study the somatic mutation landscape of oral epithelium in >1000 people. 1/n medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our new preprint in which we address:
(1) Accurate sequencing of sperm at scale
(2) Positive selection of spermatogenesis driver mutations across the exome
(3) Offspring disease risks from male reproductive aging

II'm excited to finally share our study on the mutational landscape and selection dynamics in sperm, now live on medRxiv: medrxiv.org/content/10.110…. We explored how positive selection impacts mutation rates, especially with age. Here’s a quick thread on our findings! 🧵👇

Adipose ACE2 expression was associated with the estimated cell type content of biopsies; positively correlated with proportion of microvascular endothelial cells (known to express ACE2 in other cardiovascular tissues) and negatively correlated with proportion of macrophages 3/4
