I'm currently playing around with my 23andMe data in the deCODEme browser.
deCODEme's (apparently new?) Relationship Check feature, which appears to be a targeted version of 23andMe's Relative Finder algorithm, allows users to compare their genetic data to other profiles in the database and…
A colleague just pointed me to an entry on Brad Templeton's blog where Templeton reveals some bizarre connections between people he has met as distant cousins via 23andMe's Relative Finder algorithm. Nothing too spooky, but a precursor of things to come if (as I hope and expect) 23andMe manages to…
Keith Robison has a perceptive piece riffing off the recent Illumina instrument launch, and ponders whether 2010 will be the year that array-based genomic technologies finally start to die off with the rise of sequencing.
The market certainly seems to think so. Check out the immediate effect on…
Genetic genealogist Blaine Bettinger has a fantastic post dissecting and contextualising a rather worrying result from his personal genomic analysis: a 50-60% increased lifetime risk of type 2 diabetes.
Blaine is unfortunate enough to be among the 1-2% of individuals who carry two risky versions…
Daniel, a huge congratulations to you and your wife! All the best to both of you!

Mazel tov!
Congratulations!
Congratulations!!!
Thanks guys!
Keith - obviously we were hoping for identical twins to provide the necessary control; but I guess we're just going to have to bluff our way past the reviewers...
Congratulations! Have you booked him/her in to be sequenced yet?
Wow, congratulations! Let it be your best genetic experiment ever!
Good job! Developmental Biology at home is my favorite topic.
Next step will be to learn behavioral psychology and of course do not forget to store some umbilical cord blood stem cells (or better grown some amniocentesis derived IPS ;-).
...
congrats indeed.
(slightly surprised Dr. Steve didn't 'first post' this?)
Congratulations!
How exciting! Many Congratulations!
Congratulation, the beginning of a great adventure.
Congrats!
Is that the face turned towards the camera, and the left arm?
May your family grow and be very health Daniel.
All the best! Little spuds are the best!
Now we need to know......boy or girl?
Also, skip the mega-dosing on folate!!!
Only first 3 months in some studies....

Wow...I can see I'm late to the party! Congrats, Daniel!
I promise, you and your wife will soon be eligible for sleep-deprivation studies.
Good job and Congratulations!
Congratulations. Get as much sleep as you can now!
Congrats!
Thanks again to everyone for their best wishes.
pconroy - yes, you've interpreted the anatomy correctly. :)
Congratulations - exciting times!
