The paper identifies multi-omic QTLs in early developmental tissues and shows that GWAS loci often involve complex regulatory variants not captured by eQTLs alone.

The paper identifies regulatory network modules in human stem cells, showing epigenetic and genetic factors influence pluripotency state differences.

The paper maps eQTLs in fetal-like pancreatic progenitor cells, identifying regulatory variants that influence diabetes risk by affecting gene expression and splicing in early development.

This study identifies causal genetic variants for cardiac traits by integrating spatiotemporal eQTL analysis with GWAS data, showing stage- and tissue-specific effects.
