Polygenetic scoring

Visitors are invited to explore galleries highlighting key discoveries and transformative insights in biomedicine.

By integrating genomic data from different ancestries, PRS-CSx reduces bias in risk-predicting polygenic scores.

In people with a single-gene variant that puts them at high risk for heart disease, breast cancer, or colorectal cancer, the rest of the genome can alter that risk.

COVID-19 test insights, an expanded elemental encyclopedia, where food choice and genetics meet, and more.

A large genetic study of venous thromboembolism could lead to better ways of identifying and treating people at high risk for the disease.

New partnership will expand power of polygenic risk scores to help clinicians predict and prevent disease

Tests based on millions of common DNA variants reveal hidden disease risk; researchers work to bring them to the clinic

Through “polygenic risk scoring,” researchers can identify people at high risk for disease, even if they don’t present other warning signs; method shows potential for use in the clinic
