Anyone from the #humangenetics #fediverse crowd attending #ESGCT2025 in Seville these days?
We could meet and chat about our projects, genetics, the sciences in the fediverse or just get to know each other in person drinking coffee!

The Human Genome Structural Variation Consortium will meet at the University of Iceland on May 20. The following seminars will be open to all.
Starts with
"Genetic & epigenetic variation of centromeres in nearly complete human genomes” - Glennis Logsdon
See next toot.
The seminars take place at the Edda building on campus, room E103, from 14:00-16:00.

""Heritable polygenic editing: the next frontier in genomic medicine?” this week (January 8, 2025) in Nature. That this has met with barely a whimper on social media is astonishing, so I feel the need to comment. "
So begins an incredible summary of the modern fallacy of eugenics by Greg Gibson

University of Southern California: Gene Ontology Consortium releases comprehensive resource describing functions of more than 20,000 human genes. “For the first time, researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of USC, the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and other institutions used large-scale evolutionary modeling to integrate data on human genes with genetic data collected from other […]
"The group likely responsible for the Anatolian branch of the Indo-European languages did not share the same genetic makeup as the Yamnaya. Instead, it descended from a distinct but related population, which they identify as the Caucasus–Lower Volga (CLV) group, preceding the Yamnaya and forming part of the earlier expansion of Indo-Anatolian speakers."

If you like thinking and learning about human prehistory, you'll like this interview with geneticist David Reich. Two hours on what research tells us about human origins, how modern humans relate to Neanderthals and Denisovans, ancient DNA, ancient epidemics, admixture, how genetics informs archaeology, and the spread of the Yamnaya from the steppes.

New publication: "Long genetic and social isolation in Neanderthals before their extinction"
Neanderthal genomes have been recovered from sites across Eurasia, painting an increasingly complex picture of their populations' structure that mostly indicates that late European Neanderthals belonged to a single metapopulation with no significant evidence of population structure. Here, we report the discovery of a late Neanderthal indi... #HumanGenetics https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xgen.2024.100593
The divide between modern humans and our Neanderthal cousins keeps shrinking.
' People with Neanderthal genes didn’t abruptly vanish, Akey says—their offspring just acquired more and more modern human DNA. “They were overwhelmed by waves of modern humans extending out of Africa,” he says. “The modern human population eventually absorbed the Neanderthals.” '

Juliane Winkelmann and her research team have conducted the largest genetic study on #RestlessLegsSyndrome to date, opening new pathways for treatment and prevention: http://go.tum.de/548680
“We show that genes of the fatty acid oxidation (FAO) pathway, the primary source of energy in the heart, are expressed more highly in healthy female than in healthy male hearts.”

Already had very interesting talks in the #Paleogenomics session and saw interesting (unsolved) clinical cases at the #dysmorphology workshop. Now on to the plenary opening…
Anyone in the fediverse going to #ESHG2024 tomorrow? Really looking forward! Not gonna lie, I’m a bit „annoyed“ that there’s so many interesting sessions going on at the same time…
Still undecided where to start tomorrow.
If you want to connect or say hi during the breaks, you might find me either at the booth of the „Junge Humangenetik“ or at our booth for #FindMe2care
Human Genetics Notes
Human genetics is the study of genetics as it occurs in humans. Human genetics encompasses a wide range of
different fields ancient genes, cytogenetics, molecular genetics, biochemical genetics, genomics, genes, evolving genes, clinical genes, and genetic counseling.

Curious for insights from anyone who works/ed in #HumanGenetics #HealthSciences. USBs, as part of conference swag, were pretty commonplace in the last decade at plant and animal science conferences. Bit of a wild west with no restrictions 🤠 🐎There is enough of a security concern there to fret your guts out, but I would think the risk would be a lot higher in human genetics/health sciences. Were they still handed out like candy, or was there some form of restriction? #genetics
