Ancestral diversity in complex disease genetics: from discovery to translation.

Abstract excerpt

The expansion of ancestrally diverse genetic cohorts has altered the landscape of complex disease genetics. Differences in linkage disequilibrium across populations have improved fine-mapping and the identification of target genes - key steps for translating findings from genome-wide association studies into biological understanding. Whilst there is widespread sharing of genetic architecture across ancestries,...
