The paper investigates the contribution of short tandem repeats (STRs) to age-related hearing loss phenotypes, finding they explain some missing heritability and identify risk associations.

The paper identifies distinct cochlear cell types associated with genetic susceptibility to sensory and metabolic hearing loss in older adults using integrated human and mouse data.

This study identifies distinct genes and pathways for sensory and metabolic hearing loss using large-scale audiometric phenotyping and sex-stratified analyses.

This study examines the link between bitter taste receptor gene variants and oral health outcomes in the CLSA cohort, finding associations with sore jaw muscles and suggesting genetic screening for TMD risk.

This study characterizes ADME gene variation in sub-Saharan African populations, identifying novel variants and highlighting the need for tailored pharmacogenomic approaches.
