Ronen is an Instructor at Harvard Medical School and is interested in structural variation in human genomes and its effects on human health. Welcome, Ronen!
At ASHG this year, Max Sherman will be speaking about his work on mosaic CNVs in autism (Thu 10/17 at 9:45am, #105) and Po-Ru Loh will be speaking about his work on clonal hematopoiesis in UK Biobank (Sat 10/19 at 10:45am, #343). Ronen Mukamel and Alison Barton will be presenting posters exploring...
Po-Ru Loh will be speaking about phase-based detection of mosaic chromosomal alterations at the Gordon Research Conference on Quantitative Genetics and Genomics on Tue 2/12.
We have released two preprints exploring mosaic chromosomal alterations in UK Biobank ( N~500K; Loh et al. bioRxiv) and BioBank Japan ( N~200K; Terao et al. bioRxiv). Highlights of these studies include discovery of several new risk loci at which acquired mutations systematically duplicate inherited...
Our work using computational techniques to explore mosaic copy-number mutations found in small fractions of cells was featured on the NIH Director's Blog: " Finding New Genetic Mutations Amid Healthy Cells"
