Insights into metabolic disease from studying genetics in isolated populations: stories from Greece to Greenland.

Diabetologia - 1 May 2016

Zeggini Eleftheria, Gloyn Anna L, Hansen Torben

Abstract excerpt

Over the last 10 years substantial progress has been made in our understanding of the genetic basis for type 2 diabetes and related traits. These developments have been facilitated by technological advancements that have allowed comprehensive genome-wide assessments of the impact of common genetic variation on disease risk. Current efforts are now focused on extending this to genetic variants in the rare and...
