Hot topics symposium on cell free DNA #cfDNA at the VU Amsterdam, organised by #BioSB . Kicking off right now.
https://www.dtls.nl/biosb/hottopics/hottopics-cell-free-dna/
New #cfDNA paper:
1) Clinical LOD a useful benchmark to assess cfDNA-based test performance
2) cTAF accounts for cfDNA cancer signal variation across cancer types and stages
3) cfDNA methylation most promising #genomic feature for cancer signal detection

Obligatory introductory post to find my people! I am an early stage #physicianscientist & #franciscollinsscholar in the #POB at the #NCI #NIH. My research uses #bioinformatics to integrate multi-#omics (#genomics #epigenetics #fragmentomics and #proteomics) primarily in #cfDNA #liquidbiopsy. Goal is to identify and validate #biomarkers in #rarediseases and #cancerpredispositions (focus on #NF1) with translation to the clinic and preclinical platforms (#pdx). Proponent of #openscience.

More people migrating over here, so time for another #introduction āØIām Sam, my lab at McMaster University šØš¦ works with multi-omics data and computational approaches to understand the etiologies of placental dysfunction. We are also interested in developing non-invasive methods to assess placental and pregnancy health.ā©#placenta #cfDNA #cellfreedna #genomics #epigenomics #compbio #bioinformatics #machinelearning #computationalbiology #nipt #canadianscience #science #biology #reproduction
