The HLA landscape of Colombia: a high-resolution analysis of 11,576 blood donors
This study provides the first large-scale, high-resolution HLA map of Colombia, capturing the extensive immunogenetic diversity of an admixed Latin American population. Our findings are vital for improving transplant matching, understanding population-specific disease risks, and advancing equitable genomic medicine in the region.
