Predicting cell type-specific epigenomic profiles accounting for distal genetic effects

Published in Nature Communications, 2024

Enformer Celltyping outperforms current best-in-class approaches and generalises across cell types and biological regions. Moreover, we propose a framework for evaluating models on genetic variant effect prediction using regulatory quantitative trait loci mapping studies, highlighting current limitations in genomic deep learning models. Despite this, Enformer Celltyping can also be used to study cell type-specific genetic enrichment of complex traits.

MungeSumstats: a Bioconductor package for the standardization and quality control of many GWAS summary statistics

Published in Bioinformatics, 2021

we have developed MungeSumstats, a Bioconductor R package for the standardization and quality control of GWAS summary statistics. MungeSumstats can handle the most common summary statistic formats, including variant call format (VCF) producing a reformatted, standardized, tabular summary statistic file, VCF or R native data object.
