Senior computational biologist and co-first author, Giulio Genovese, recently published “Genetic drivers and cellular selection of female mosaic X chromosome loss” in Nature. In this study, we explored the genetic causes and health implications of mosaic loss of the X chromosome (mLOX) in females. We analyzed data from over 880,000 […]

Postdoctoral researcher, Emi Ling, published her work on “A concerted neuron-astrocyte program declines in ageing and schizophrenia” in Nature. Ling et al. analyzed the prefrontal cortex of 191 human donors by single-nucleus RNA-seq of postmortem brain tissue samples pooled together in “villages.” We found a striking relationship between cortical neuron […]
