Trans-biobank analysis with 676,000 individuals elucidates the association of polygenic risk scores of complex traits with human lifespan
2019-11-29
Abstract excerpt
Human genetics seeks a way to improve human health on a global scale. Expectations are running high for polygenic risk scores (PRSs) to be translated into clinical practice to predict an inborn susceptibility to health risks. While risk stratification based on PRS is one way to promote population health, a strategy to utilize genetics to prioritize modifiable risk factors and biomarkers driving heath outcome is al...
