Mapping mammalian cell-type-specific transcriptional regulatory networks using KD-CAGE and ChIP-seq data in the TC-YIK cell line.Examining the overlap between genes perturbed in the KD-CAGE experiments and genes with a ChIP-seq peak within 50 kb of their promoter, we identified direct...

Tricho-hepatic-enteric syndrome (THES) without intractable diarrhoeaWe report an 8 year old girl who was diagnosed with THES by the Undiagnosed Disease Program-WA with compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in SKIV2L

Cellular and molecular changes to cortical neurons following low intensity repetitive magnetic stimulation at different frequenciesA systematic comparison of the cellular and molecular changes in neurons in vitro induced by low intensity magnetic stimulation at different frequencies.
The aim of the Computational Biology team is to understand how individual bases in our genome predispose, alter and interact in normal and disease contexts.

Personalised analytics for rare disease diagnosticsHere we focus on the problem of prioritising variants with respect to the observed disease phenotype
Research
A phenotype centric benchmark of variant prioritisation toolsWe hypothesised that the performance of variant prioriisation tools may vary by disease phenotype.

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