Abstract excerpt
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) are increasingly used to estimate the personal risk of a trait based on genetics. However, most genomic cohorts are of European populations, with a strong under-representation of non-European groups. Given that PRS poorly transport across racial groups, this has the potential to exacerbate health disparities if used in clinical care. Hence there is a need to generate PRS that perform...
