Abstract excerpt
The broader application of polygenic risk score (PRS) is hindered by the limited transferability of PRS developed in Europeans to non-European populations. While many statistical methods have been developed to improve the performance of PRS in non-European populations, most of them focused on discrete genetic ancestry clusters and did not consider admixed individuals. Admixed individuals pose a unique challenge...
