Genome-wide association studies in Africans and African Americans: expanding the framework of the genomics of human traits and disease.

Public health genomics - 1 Jan 2015

Peprah Emmanuel, Xu Huichun, Tekola-Ayele Fasil, Royal Charmaine D

Abstract excerpt

Genomic research is one of the tools for elucidating the pathogenesis of diseases of global health relevance and paving the research dimension to clinical and public health translation. Recent advances in genomic research and technologies have increased our understanding of human diseases, genes associated with these disorders, and the relevant mechanisms. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have proliferated...
