Research

An evaluation of GPT models for phenotype concept recognition

Clinical deep phenotyping and phenotype annotation play a critical role in both the diagnosis of patients with rare disorders as well as in building computationally-tractable knowledge in the rare disorders field.

Study Protocol for a Stepped-Wedge Cluster (Nested) Randomized Controlled Trial of Antenatal Colostrum Expression (ACE) Instruction in First-Time Mothers: The ACE Study

Although many mothers initiate breastfeeding, supplementation with human-milk substitutes (formula) during the birth hospitalization is common and has been associated with early breastfeeding cessation. Colostrum hand expressed in the last few weeks before birth, known as antenatal colostrum expression (ACE), can be used instead of human-milk substitutes. However, evidence is lacking on the efficacy of ACE on breastfeeding outcomes and in non-diabetic mothers.

CAGE-defined promoter regions of the genes implicated in Rett Syndrome

A comprehensive picture of the regulatory regions of the three genes involved in Rett Syndrome

Research

A phenotype centric benchmark of variant prioritisation tools

We hypothesised that the performance of variant prioriisation tools may vary by disease phenotype.

Promoter-level expression clustering identifies time development of transcriptional regulatory cascades initiated by ERBB receptors in breast cancer cells

The analysis of CAGE (Cap Analysis of Gene Expression) time-courses has been applied to examine the dynamics of enhancer and promoter by sequentially...

Conserved temporal ordering of promoter activation implicates common mechanisms governing the immediate early response across cell types and stimuli

We obtain a set of 57 candidate immediate early genes possessing promoters that consistently drive a rapid but transient increase in expression over time
