CU Anschutz Recruits National Leader to Launch Functional Personalized Medicine Initiative
CU Anschutz welcomes Alice Soragni to launch a Functional Personalized Medicine Initiative using rapid tumor organoid testing to guide treatment decisions.
Happy to share this new, very intentional chapter. I have left UCLA after 14 years to join the University of Colorado Anschutz as Professor of Biomedical Informatics and Neurosurgery and the inaugural Marsico Chair in Excellence in Functional Precision Medicine/n

Negative grant review: "This is not a research application, it's a rambling discourse about contemporary issues in bioinformatics"
Happy upcoming Pioneer Award Application Day to all who celebrate. I was mentioning that the best review comment I've ever gotten came from the related DP2 (New Innovator) mechanism. Enjoy this throwback to #GrantReviewGreatstHits as the deadline gets closer! May you all do better than I've done!

Youβve got RNA-seq.
Methylation.
Proteomics.
Time to βintegrateβ the data.
But how? And why?
Letβs break it down.

Science Under Threat in the United States: Research turns hope into reality
Two scientists describe how an acute myeloid leukemia diagnosis underscores the need for continued federal support for research and access to care.
Life-saving treatments exist because of decades of research, but cuts to NIH-funded research put that progress at risk.
When the unthinkable happens, will the care we need still be there? We must protect this lifeline.

Homepage - openRxiv
openRxiv is an independent non-profit, the new organizational home for bioRxiv and medRxiv, enabling researchers to instantly share groundbreaking findings with the global scientific community.
Big news: we are setting up a new non-profit organization to run bioRxiv and medRxiv. It's called openRxiv [no it's not a new preprint server; it's dedicated organization to oversee the servers] openrxiv.org 1/n

Integration of 168,000 samples reveals global patterns of the human gut microbiome
The Human Microbiome Compendium is a unified database of publicly available human
gut microbiome 16S samples, built with the integrated data from hundreds of independent
projects. The compendium is us...
Today we report a new compendium of human gut microbiomes with >168,000 samples
By analyzing this massive dataset, we discovered distinct microbiome patterns across the globe, and show we can predict where a person lives just from their gut bacteria
