Multi-ancestry admixture mapping reveals ancestry-associated disease loci in the UK Biobank

2026-08-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genome-wide association studies have successfully identified thousands of genetic associations, yet their predominant reliance on European-descent populations limits insights into the full spectrum of human genetic diversity and its impact on disease. Admixture mapping offers a powerful, complementary approach by leveraging differences in haplotype frequencies across ancestral backgrounds to ide...
