A new method for multi-ancestry polygenic prediction improves performance across diverse populations

2022-03-27

Abstract excerpt

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) increasingly predict complex traits, however, suboptimal performance in non-European populations raise concerns about clinical applications and health inequities. We developed CT-SLEB, a powerful and scalable method to calculate PRS using ancestry-specific GWAS summary statistics from multi-ancestry training samples, integrating clumping and thresholding, empirical Bayes and super learn...
