Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: There have been few genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of prostate cancer among diverse populations.

In addition, we tested prostate cancer risk variants and developed genetic risk models of prostate cancer for Japanese and Latinos. METHODS: Our first-stage GWAS of prostate cancer...
