Improving Polygenic Prediction in Ancestrally Diverse Populations

2021-01-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have attenuated cross-population predictive performance. As existing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were predominantly conducted in individuals of European descent, the limited transferability of PRS reduces its clinical value in non-European populations and may exacerbate healthcare disparities. Recent efforts to level ancestry imbalance in genomic research h...
