The paper presents GAIA, a global atlas of immune alleles, showing that underrepresented groups have more diverse alleles needed for vaccine design than Northwest European groups.

This study analyzes whole genome sequencing data from the Faroe Islands to explore ancestry, genetic diversity, and signals of recent selection in a North Atlantic founder population.

This paper presents a blood regulatory variation map from Southern African populations, showing increased utility for interpreting African genetic studies.

This study presents the first whole genome sequence data and genome-wide association study in a Malagasy cohort, uncovering novel body composition associations and highlighting the importance of diverse populations in genomic research.

This study compares low-pass sequencing and genotyping arrays for pharmacogenetic trait mapping, finding that low-pass sequencing at 0.4x coverage achieves comparable imputation accuracy to genotyping arrays.
