Heart Disease Risk Variants, Genes Found in GWAS Meta-Analysis
Researchers identified 16 loci associated with a heart condition that is overrepresented in young women, leading to distinct genes and pathways.
Genetic Genealogy Study Unravels French Canadian Population Structure, Historical Migrations
Using genealogical and genotyping data, researchers retraced migrations to and within Quebec by French settlers, identifying genetic markers for spread along river networks.
Investigators from Inserm and Radboud University Medical Center are spearheading the endeavor, called HT-Advance, which is funded by the EU, the UK, and Switzerland.
Ewing Sarcoma Risk Locus Analysis Sheds Light on Cancer's Formation
Analyzing a chromosome 6 risk locus by long-read sequencing, researchers saw a combination of germline and somatic alterations interacting in the development of Ewing sarcoma.
Stroke Risk Contributors, Treatment Targets Uncovered in Cross-Ancestry GWAS
Starting with a GWAS meta-analysis that included more than 110,000 stroke patients, researchers found new risk loci and developed polygenic scores for risk prediction.
