As #SGGDExeter2024 comes to an end, MassGeneral News rising star Miriam Udler closes the meeting by sharing her views on whether partitioned polygenic scores can illuminate the heterogeneity in type 2 diabetes, inform mechanism and potentially influence diagnosis and management.
Happy to share my work on the glycaemic and non-glycaemic determinants of HbA1c during and outside pregnancy at #SGGDExeter2024

Really pleased to have been able to present our work on the genetic aetiology underlying the Diabetes-Blood Pressure relationship at the wonderful SGGD conference in beautiful Exeter!
I had a great time, lots of inspiring talks. Big thanks to the organisers!

So happy to see pediatric endocrine Boston Children's fellow Ray Kreienkamp Ray Kreienkamp, postdoc with Miriam Udler and me at MassGeneral News and Broad Institute, receive an award for his excellent poster at #SGGDExeter2024 on the use of polygenic scores for type 1 diabetes.
So excited to be in Exeter, a scientific destination for diabetes genetics, for the #SGGDExeter2024 ! Wonderful to gather with colleagues as we watch the amazing progress in our field, as genetics begins to permeate clinical care in metabolic diseases.
« This paper could have been written by a computer scientist » one of my favourite reviewers’ comments . These two seem to have done OK. Final snap of #SGGDExeter2024
Thanks for a splendid meeting in Exeter👏🏻😃 #sggdexeter2024 Next time 2026 in Bergen😀 #sggdbergen2026
Whilst in Exeter, dropped by to see the lab besties 17 years later - not much has changed… #SGGDExeter2024
Another fascinating talk at #SGGDExeter2024 : new MGH Research Scholar Melina Claussnitzer, Ph.D. presents her group's work correlating genetic variants & polygenic scores to molecular processes underlying metabolic disease, shedding light on mechanisms of insulin resistance Mass General Brigham
The breadth and depth of this genetics meeting exemplified by these two chaps , from opposite ends of the human genetics works #SGGDExeter2024
All set up and ready to welcome over 190 delegates to Exeter. Looking forward to three days of talks and discussions on the genetics of diabetes (and hyperinsulinism!). The sun has even made an appearance for us. #SGGDExeter2024
It was an inspirational and extremely important part of the conference, thank you so much Tom Staniford #SGGDExeter2024 (great jokes too!)
For those #SGGDExeter2024 attendees who stayed the weekend Devon weather complied! Spring is (finally!!) springing!!
What a shame to miss #SGGDExeter2024 happening uni chronos as #DUKPC24 . I am surprise Elisa De Franco name is not on your list Inês Barroso. She wins something on average every 2-3 meetings she attends. Congrats to all the winners ☺️☺️
