A challenge faced by many families undergoing genetic testing is that it's not feasible to collect samples from both biological parents. Hoping duoNovo can help address this.

Thanks, John. Hope this ends up being useful!

yeah it's a very vanilla setting

That's amusing for sure. But still, the approach is imo quite interesting and there's interesting results, e.g. the lower MAE for dispersion.

Part of this means reviewers not ripping on manuscripts that explicitly mention limitations *for those limitations*

I just the word epigenetics; it has so many meanings that it's next to useless. I prefer less ambigous terms: Epigenomic data for chromatin-related data (including methylation); gene regulatory mechanisms for the general phenomenon of how genes are regulated, etc.
