Reflecting on today's fantastic #iMED2022, I am thrilled to share an app I've been creating to create high-quality🤓, collaborative🗺️, & dynamic 📈diagnostic #MedEd schemas!

Schematify App Here: diagnostic-schema.herokuapp.com

Medical learning is all about the organization of a HUGE amount of (growing) knowledge😅

I loved the concept of a logical framework...but my handwriting, spelling and ability to hold onto paper documents is👎🙈

Plus, I wanted to be able to collaborate dynamically with YOU!🤩 2/ Schemas can help provide an...
Current tools (handwritten, PowerPoint, chart apps) all had their limitations and were not designed for medical trainees!

So I used @ThePSF #python 🐍with @plotlygraphs Dash and @Graphviz to develop a web tool that leverages the collaboration capabilities of @googlesheets 3/
Enter your content in the sheet, make it public, share with friends, and copy the URL into the app for instant simple schemas that you can export as PDFs 🤯

Sheet Template: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

And adding a new node or branch is as simple as adding a row to your sheet!🙌4/ Example of how the google s...
You may also be able to envision new ways to integrate this into #MedEd teaching.💡

For example, the Vandy Problem Solvers @VUmedicine @VUMCMedicineRes with leadership from @chasejwebber allowed me to create a schema in real-time while we worked through a case conference🕷️5/ Image
This is still a work in progress (you will find bugs🐞) but I hope it might be helpful!

Thanks to so many that inspired me with their schemas, diagnostic thinking, digital tools, and discussion especially @chasejwebber

Ever wonder what the #3Dgenome folding🔺of a Neanderthal looked like?! Could it hold any clues as to where and why we have DNA 🧬and trait differences?

Check out our @capra_lab, Pollard lab & @gfudenberg lab collaboration @biorxivpreprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Sadly, bc of ancient👴sample degradation, we've never explored the role of the 3D genome in archaic hominins like Neanderthals/Denisovans.

But lucky for us, new deep learning models can infer 3D genome structure from DNA sequence alone (like @gfudenberg & @drklly's Akita).

2/8
Using these models, we predict 3D contact maps across Neanderthal, Denisovan, and diverse modern human genomes.

We identify 167 distinct regions with diverged 3D genome organization between archaics and modern humans across the genome!

As promised, here is my #tweetorial for our @capra_lab @NatureComms paper! Interested in complex trait #genetics, #heritability, #Evolution , or #Neanderthals ? 🧬

Paper: nature.com/articles/s4146…
"Behind the paper" article: natureecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/uncoveri…

We have examples of how Neanderthals gave Eurasians individual genetic variants that contribute to traits; however, most medically/evolutionarily relevant traits are complex, with contributions from thousands of parts of the genome. We wanted something more comprehensive...

2/
We use partitioned heritability to investigate the relationship between introgression and diverse traits. First, we show that genomic regions with Neanderthal ancestry are depleted of heritability for all traits considered, except those related to skin and hair.

Excited to present my first @capra_lab PhD project in today's @GeneticsSociety's @AJHGNews!!

Interested in #3Dgenome structure, complex trait #heritability, and/or evolutionary constraint?

cell.com/ajhg/fulltext/…

1/n
By synthesizing topologically associating domain (TAD) maps across 37 diverse cell types with 41 genome-wide association studies (GWASs), we investigate the differences in disease association and evolutionary pressure on variation across the 3D genome landscape.

2/n Image
We know that TAD boundary disruption by SV can lead to developmental disease and cancers. (Thus, selection acts against these SVs). 

But what about the relationship between common human variation in TAD boundaries (eg. SNPs) and associations with complex traits?
