Fine-scale population structure in the UK Biobank: implications for genome-wide association studies.

Human molecular genetics - 29 Sept 2020

Cook James P, Mahajan Anubha, Morris Andrew P

Abstract excerpt

The UK Biobank is a prospective study of more than 500 000 participants, which has aggregated data from questionnaires, physical measures, biomarkers, imaging and follow-up for a wide range of health-related outcomes, together with genome-wide genotyping supplemented with high-density imputation. Previous studies have highlighted fine-scale population structure in the UK on a North-West to South-East cline, but...
