Abstract excerpt
African Americans (AAs) are underrepresented in pharmacogenomics research, which has led to a significant gap in knowledge. Through admixture, AAs can inherit specific loci from either their African or European ancestors, known as local ancestry (LA). A previous study in AAs identified SNPs located in the CYP2C cluster that are associated with warfarin dose. However, LA was not considered in that study. Here, we...
