This study performs a GWAS on asthma exacerbations in the UK Biobank, identifying two novel genetic loci associated with exacerbation risk in individuals with asthma.

This study performs a multi-ancestry GWAS on lung function and COPD, identifying 559 genes and 29 pathways, and showing genetic risk scores are associated with COPD across ancestries.

This study identifies eight novel genetic signals associated with asthma-COPD overlap through a genome-wide association analysis involving multiple cohorts.

This study expands the genetic landscape of COPD by identifying 82 risk loci, revealing associations with lung function, cell types, and comorbidities.

This study investigates the heritability and genetic variants associated with lung diffusing capacity, finding a significant association with a variant in the GPR126 gene.

This study identifies over 50 new genetic loci associated with pulmonary function through a multiethnic meta-analysis of 90,715 individuals.
