Do you know the name Dorothy Hansine Andersen?

She was the first researcher and physician to discover cystic fibrosis and its autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. As a pathologist, she recognised distinctive organ damage in the pancreases and lungs of deceased children with celiac disease.

With #FindMe2care we connect patients with rare genetic diagnoses to research, clinical trials, and patient organizations.

Excited to present our platform at #ESGCT2025! Curious? Let's chat during breaks or meet me at the poster session tomorrow, P1111.

There was lots of data to play with for #TidyTuesday this week where we're looking at the power of different passports! ✈️

I decided to try out the idea of using small multiples and highlighting to untangle a spaghetti chart with lots of lines 📊

Does anyone know of good custom feed generators for Bluesky that don’t require coding or setting up your own server?

Getting ready for #eshg2025 …and our postdoc @lydiasagath.bsky.social made a nice BINGO card again.
Paying a lot of attention to the entire event will pay off!

Since I cannot attend #ESHG2025 this year, I hope to see many interesting posts following the hashtag! I already found familiar names to follow from the human genetics community finally populating the platform!

I wrote about the data-to-ink ratio and a new game I've invented called "ink golf" for data visualization.

📊 Day 3 – Circular | #30DayChartChallenge
A bit more on the art side today, visualizing Act I dialogues of Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo, and Juliet as spirals. I’ve never created text spirals before, so this was a fun little challenge and a great learning opportunity.
