Unraveling the potential of short and long read sequencing for human genome profiling

Aurélie Leduc, Asmae Bachr, Florian Sandron, Marc Délepine, Damien Delafoy, Cédric Fund, Christian Daviaud, Stéphane Meslage, Violette Turon, Delphine Bacq-Daian, Francis Rousseau, Robert Olaso, Jean‐François Deleuze, Zuzana Gerber, Vincent Meyer

This study compares short and long read sequencing technologies for human genome profiling, finding they are equivalent for SNVs but long reads excel in structural variants and haplotype phasing.

Can imputation in a European country be improved by local reference panels? The example of France

Anthony F. Herzig, Lourdes Velo‐Suárez, Principal Investigators, Dominique Campion, Jean‐François Dartigues, Jean‐Charles Lambert, Collaborators, Bioinformatics, Thomas Ludwig, Benjamin Grenier‐Boley, Sébastien Letort, Pierre Lindenbaum, Vincent Meyer, Olivier Quenez, Statistical genetics, , Emmanuelle Génin

The paper evaluates whether using a local reference panel improves imputation accuracy in French individuals compared to a public reference panel, showing benefits of combining both approaches.
