This pilot study identifies British South Asians at high risk of cholestatic liver disease through genetic and phenotypic recall, finding 66.7% of participants had undetected liver disease.

This study identifies a bZIP protein in Sporobolomyces yeast that mediates UV-induced oxidative stress response, showing evolutionary conservation with Nrf2/Yap1 pathways in animals and yeasts.

This study performs a GWAS meta-analysis of psoriasis, identifying 109 susceptibility loci, including 45 new ones, and highlights potential therapeutic targets and disease mechanisms.

This study estimates that ~6% of insulin-treated diabetic individuals with ambiguous features in British Pakistanis and Bangladeshis have T1D, highlighting the need for autoantibody and C-peptide testing.

This paper conducts a genome-wide meta-analysis of palmoplantar pustulosis, identifying genetic associations with Th2 responses and cigarette smoking.

This paper conducts a genome-wide association study in Nigerian sickle cell disease patients to identify genetic variants associated with fetal hemoglobin levels, finding significant associations at BCL11A and HBS1L-MYB and novel signals in the Nigerian cohort.

The paper identifies PIK3R3 as a candidate regulator of platelet count in Bangladeshi ancestry individuals through GWAS and functional analysis.

The paper evaluates 42 inflammatory markers in MDD cases and controls, finding strong confounding effects and limited predictive power of individual markers for MDD diagnosis.
