Abstract excerpt
Introduction: A population-specific genomic reference is important for research and clinical practice, yet it remains unavailable for Han Chinese (HC) in Taiwan. Objectives: We report the first whole genome sequencing (WGS) database of HC (1000 Taiwanese genome (1KTW-WGS)) and demonstrate several applications to cardiovascular medicine. Methods: Whole genomes of 997 HC were sequenced to at least 30X depth. A...
