Abstract excerpt
Genetic ancestry refers to an individual's biogeographical origins inferred from correlated allele frequencies shared with individuals from similar ancestral regions. Understanding the complexities of genetic ancestry has proven beneficial in the field of pharmacogenomics (PGx), where personalized medication regimens are optimizing therapeutic outcomes while minimizing the risk of side effects. With the rise in...
