Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To review the contribution of the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and NHS II to genomics, epigenetics, and metabolomics research. METHODS: We performed a narrative review of the publications of the NHS and NHS II between 1990 and 2016 based on biospecimens, including blood and tumor tissue, collected from participants. RESULTS: The NHS has contributed to the discovery of genetic loci influencing more than...
