[PDF][PDF] Portability of 245 polygenic scores when derived from the UK Biobank and applied to 9 ancestry groups from the same cohort

F Privé, H Aschard, S Carmi, L Folkersen… - The American Journal of …, 2022 - cell.com
The low portability of polygenic scores (PGSs) across global populations is a major concern
that must be addressed before PGSs can be used for everyone in the clinic. Indeed, …

[PDF][PDF] Making the most of clumping and thresholding for polygenic scores

F Privé, BJ Vilhjálmsson, H Aschard… - The American journal of …, 2019 - cell.com
Polygenic prediction has the potential to contribute to precision medicine. Clumping and
