The accuracy of polygenic score models for anthropometric traits and Type II Diabetes in the Native Hawaiian Population

This study evaluates polygenic score models for anthropometric traits and Type II Diabetes in Native Hawaiians, finding reduced accuracy compared to European- or East Asian-ancestry populations.

Evaluating Genomic Polygenic Risk Scores for Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Latinos

This study evaluates polygenic risk scores for childhood ALL in Latinos, finding similar performance between non-Latino white and Latino samples but lower accuracy than a conventional model using known ALL-associated loci.

Variant to function mapping at single-cell resolution through network propagation

The paper introduces SCAVENGE, a method mapping causal variants to cellular contexts at single-cell resolution, identifying disease-relevant cell types and mechanisms.

Genome-wide transethnic meta-analysis identifies novel susceptibility loci for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

This study identifies five novel genetic loci associated with childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia through a trans-ethnic meta-analysis across four ethnic groups.

Genetic Determinants of Blood Cell Traits Influence Susceptibility to Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

This study identifies genetic variants influencing blood cell traits linked to increased susceptibility to childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
