Psychiatric genetics in the diverse landscape of Latin American populations - Nature Genetics
Latin America and the Caribbean remain largely underrepresented in psychiatric genetics research. This Review highlights the need for more research in these populations to advance genetic insights and...

www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 📄 New preprint alert! 📄 @helenyslin.bsky.social benchmarked polygenic scores (PGS) using genotyping arrays vs whole-genome sequencing (WGS) across traits & populations in @AllofUsResearch. What’s the best approach? The answer is… it depends! 🧵⬇️

Differential performance of polygenic prediction across traits and populations depending on genotype discovery approach
Polygenic scores (PGS) are widely used for estimating genetic predisposition to complex traits by aggregating the effects of common variants into a single measure. They hold promise in identifying ind...
