Abstract excerpt
Polygenic scores can improve atrial fibrillation risk prediction. However, limited accuracy and cross-ancestry transferability hinder clinical translation. Here, we explore several ensemble approaches to generate ancestry-optimized polygenic scores, with development in diverse participants from the All of Us Research Program, BioBank Japan, and three additional cohorts. Our ancestry-specific multi-trait approach...
