DOI: 10.1002/jgc4.1730
Abstract: Traditionally, the field of genetics has used patient-reported genetic ancestry to assist in risk assessment, calculate detection rates, and understand residual risks for recessive or X-linked genetic diseases. Patient-reported genetic ancestry is useful for variant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ajhg.2020.01.016
Abstract: Disease risk varies significantly between ethnic groups, however, the clinical significance and implications of these observations are poorly understood. Investigating ethnic differences within the human proteome may shed light on the impact of ancestry on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/neuonc/noaa130
Abstract: BACKGROUND Ependymoma is a histologically defined central nervous system tumor most commonly occurring in childhood. Population-level incidence differences by race/ethnicity are observed, with individuals of European ancestry at highest risk. We aimed to determine whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12920-018-0367-5
Abstract: BackgroundChildhood asthma is a syndrome composed of heterogeneous phenotypes; furthermore, intrinsic biologic variation among racial/ethnic populations suggests possible genetic ancestry variation in childhood asthma. The objective of the study is to identify clinically homogeneous asthma… read more here.
