Large-scale meta-analysis of over one million individuals reveals the genetic architecture of 127 complex traits in East Asian populations

2026-06-23

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have disproportionately focused on European (EUR) populations, limiting the characterization of genetic architecture in other ancestries. To address this imbalance, we integrated large-scale biobanks from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China to perform the largest phenome-wide meta-analysis to date in East Asian (EAS) populations, encompassing over one million individuals across...
