Towards Uniformly Applicable Polygenic Risk Scores: Factors Influencing Cross-Ancestry Prediction Performance

Introduction: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) aim to investigate the associations between genetic variants and phenotypes. This is especially helpful for the study of complex diseases, for which it is demonstrated that they are highly polygenic. One possible application of GWAS is the calculation [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
