Source: News Excited to share our results showing that in the UK G6PD deficiency is common in Black and South Asian men. It is associated with 4yr delay in diabetes diagnosis and increased risk of complications. We need to do better!

Really excited to share our next population-scale WGS work preprint. Here, we analyse three anthropometric traits in nearly 700,000 individuals (discovery UKB ~450K, replication AoU). We show, for these traits, that common and rare variant heritability is convergent www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Whole-genome sequencing analysis of anthropometric traits in 672,976 individuals reveals convergence between rare and common genetic associations
Genetic association studies have mostly focussed on common variants from genotyping arrays or rare protein-coding variants from exome sequencing. Here, we used whole-genome sequence (WGS) data in 672,...
