Hospitalizations from Birth to 28 Years in a Population Cohort of Individuals Born with Five Rare Craniofacial Anomalies in Western Australia

To describe trends, age-specific patterns, and factors influencing hospitalizations for 5 rare craniofacial anomalies.

Research

Immune checkpoint therapy responders display early clonal expansion of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes

Immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) causes durable tumour responses in a subgroup of patients, but it is not well known how T cell receptor beta (TCRβ) repertoire dynamics contribute to the therapeutic response.

Indigenous Australian genomes show deep structure and rich novel variation

The Indigenous peoples of Australia have a rich linguistic and cultural history. How this relates to genetic diversity remains largely unknown because of their limited engagement with genomic studies. Here we analyse the genomes of 159 individuals from four remote Indigenous communities, including people who speak a language (Tiwi) not from the most widespread family (Pama-Nyungan). This large collection of Indigenous Australian genomes was made possible by careful community engagement and consultation.

Reference exome data for Australian Aboriginal populations to support health-based research

Our data set provides a useful reference point for genomic studies on Aboriginal Australians

Innovation in Informatics to Improve Clinical Care and Drug Accessibility for Rare Diseases in China

In China, there are severe unmet medical needs of people living with rare diseases. Relatedly, there is a dearth of data to inform rare diseases policy. This is historically partially due to the lack of informatics infrastructure, including standards and terminology, data sharing mechanisms and network; and concerns over patient privacy protection.

C1 CAGE detects transcription start sites and enhancer activity at single-cell resolution.

We introduce C1 CAGE, a method for the detection of transcript 5'-ends with an original sample multiplexing strategy in the C1TM microfluidic system

Research

A Diagnosis for All Rare Genetic Diseases: The Horizon and the Next Frontiers

There is a critical need for the field to develop and implement strategies to understand the mechanisms underlying all rare diseases and translate these to clinical care

Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency (ARSA-PD), hypertension and chronic renal disease in Aboriginal Australians

Traits associated with CVD, CRD and T2D in Aboriginal Australians provide novel insight into function of Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency variants

Research

Transcriptional dynamics reveal critical roles for non-coding RNAs in the immediate-early response

The immediate-early response mediates cell fate in response to a variety of extracellular stimuli and is dysregulated in many cancers.

Research

On-the-fly selection of cell-specific enhancers, genes, miRNAs and proteins across the human body using SlideBase

SlideBase, a web tool which offers a new way of selecting genes, promoters, enhancers and microRNAs that are preferentially expressed/used in a specified set of cells/tissues
