The paper corrects gene models for PVRIG in scRNA-seq and bulk data, improving its detection and enabling accurate functional analysis.

This paper screens adults using whole genome sequencing and imaging to detect age-related chronic disease risks, finding unrecognized diseases in 8% of participants and genomic correlations in 25%.

The paper addresses criticisms of a previous study on identifying individuals from whole-genome sequencing data by demonstrating the limitations of Erlich's simulation and highlighting the algorithm's use of multiple trait-based predictive models.

This study sequences 10,545 human genomes at 30-40x coverage, identifying 150 million variants and showing 84% of the genome can be confidently sequenced, with implications for clinical use.
