Analysis across Taiwan Biobank, Biobank Japan and UK Biobank identifies hundreds of novel loci for 36 quantitative traits

2021-04-15

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified tens of thousands of genetic loci associated with human complex traits and diseases 1,2 . However, the majority of GWAS were conducted in individuals of European ancestry 3 . Failure to capture global genetic diversity has limited biological discovery and impeded equitable delivery of genomic knowledge to diverse populations 4 . Here we report findings from 10...
