Within-Family Validation of Polygenic Risk Scores and Complex Trait Prediction

2020-03-05

Abstract excerpt

We test a variety of polygenic predictors using tens of thousands of genetic siblings for whom we have SNP genotypes, health status, and phenotype information in late adulthood. Siblings have typically experienced similar environments during childhood, and exhibit negligible population stratification relative to each other. Therefore, the ability to predict differences in disease risk or complex trait values betwe...
