TITLE:  "Exploration of human genetic and phenotypic diversity through cell villages". ABSTRACT: Our species is characterized by an immense diversity in neurological and psychological traits. Common and rare genetic variants have been linked to trait differences and disease risk in human populations, though the underlying biology is poorly understood and difficult to study at large scales. […]

TITLE: "Splicing-specific transcriptome-wide association uncovers novel genetic mechanisms for Schizophrenia." ABSTRACT: Recent studies have highlighted the essential role of RNA splicing, a key mechanism of alternative RNA processing, in establishing connections between […]

TITLE: "Modeling the heterogenous NFκB dynamics of single immune cells." ABSTRACT: Macrophages function as immune sentinel cells, initiating appropriate and specialized immune responses to a great variety of pathogens.  The […]
