Abstract excerpt
Large-scale cohorts with combined genetic and phenotypic data, coupled with methodological advances, have produced increasingly accurate genetic predictors of complex human phenotypes called polygenic risk scores (PRSs). In addition to the potential translational impacts of identifying at-risk individuals, PRS are being utilized for a growing list of scientific applications, including causal inference,...
