Excited for the #ctc2021 to start. I’m glad to see new and old friends. Online meetings have their good and bad points but the environmental benefits are undeniable.

The ImageCCA paper is out! Seven years in the making, this work uses a convolutional autoencoder plus CCA to
find associations between histopathological images and bulk gene expression data across tissues. In GTEx v6 data, we find image morphology QTLs.

"Horror moment eel bursts its way out of heron's throat while it's flying away" Yeah, headline (from Daily Star) speaks for itself. Photos are from Maryland. Heron survived. Photos Mr Sam Davis. #birds #birdsvsfish #eels #animals

You know about dramatic increases in cases, hospitalizations across US
Surge began after labor day
But one state has done well during this time
Big state that would move national numbers
And what they've done holds a lesson for all of us
Yes -- let's talk California

Very happy and proud to present: The GTEx papers. This set of 15 papers published today describes the final phase of this 10-year effort, providing the genomics community an atlas of genetic regulatory variants and a deep dive into the biology behind it. sciencemag.org/collections/g…

Regarding the claim that 30-35% of Big Ten athletes have been discovered to have heart conditions linked to Covid-19: It was incorrect.
Here is some clarification from Penn State.
"Dr. Sebastianelli wishes to clarify this point, and apologize for any confusion."

I received a lot of pushback in July for forecasting a peak in August. My model was called “made up”, “badly misleading”, “uninformed”, etc.
As scientists, we should strive to always follow the data, challenge our assumptions, & update our priors.

Modeling by @youyanggu has been useful but the latest projections make no sense to me. Why would infections peak in early Aug and then decline? Only 2 things will cause decline in transmission: herd immunity & interventions. Short thread.

If we're being honest, 2020 is the perfect year to get rid of Daylight Saving Time. Just rip the band-aid off while we're all home confused as hell anyway
