Had the opportunity to talk to high school students about genetics and identity. Zooming out and giving a brief overview of the field of complex trait genetics made me appreciate the cool work that we do even more. Thanks to the students for their attention, I hope they liked it.

First presentation of my PhD! Got to present my work on evolutionary psychiatric genetics to a mixed group of geneticists and evolutionary psychologists. I learned a lot from both sides and will apply that knowledge to make the project more robust. Thanks for an amazing time!

@JoellePasman @ShaiCarmi It made me think of this paper by @euffelmann discussing the problems of doing GWAS on a PRS-derived phenotype, although. false positives might be less of an issue when comparing two sets of individuals with similar PRS but different phenotypes

Had a lot of fun teaching a workshop with Willem Frankenhuis on transparency from theory to test at #ECDP2023, focusing on clear theories, preregistration, and multiverse analysis. All slides and exercises can be found at

@pelt_dirk Thanks for pointing this out! I am now at the Amsterdam UMC and we are currently indeed working on similar approaches with genomic SEM. I am curious to see those results
