Sources of gene expression variation in a globally diverse human cohort

Non-coding genetic variation influencing gene expression and splicing is the main source of phenotypic variation within and between species. Here we used genome sequences and gene expression data from diverse human populations to better understand these links, toward more accurate and generalizable models for precision medicine.


Naturally occurring variation in a cytochrome P450 modifies thiabendazole responses independently of beta-tubulin

Parasitic nematodes infect billions of people yet we have limited drugs to treat these infections. Here, we discovered the first novel mechanism of benzimidazole resistance in over forty years.
