📢👀🧬Join PRIMED Consortium and ASHG society tomorrow for a journal club on developing polygenic risk scores in diverse populations

Delighted to share our study by Sarah Urbut with Akl Fahed on adding in a CAD polygenic risk score to clinical factors to boost CAD risk prediction, particularly for recovering premature CAD events ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… Circulation: Genomic and Precision Medicine

🌍Hello to PRIMED Consortium investigators, friends, and collaborators at #AfSHG2025 this week!

Individual polygenic risk scores for the same trait can yield different results due to various derivation differences. Our study led by A. Misra & w Aniruddh Patel demonstrates how successive score integration can improve accuracy & stability nature.com/articles/s4146…

Congratulations to PRIMED Consortium researchers Eimear Kenny and Genevieve Wojcik, PhD MHS, featured in ASHG #WomensHistoryMonth

Terrific work from Iftikhar J. Kullo. *10y* fu MI-GENES trial (ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… Circulation) now shows that CAD PRS disclosure vs not on top of clinical risk disclosure for intermediate risk adults leads to reduction in MACE ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI… Circulation: Genomic and Precision Medicine #ACC25 Small trial

Admixture in humans is widespread & every individual is admixed to some degree A review by Yun Li et al of methods for local ancestry inference (LAI) & how LAI can be used for admixture mapping, association testing, and for calculating polygenic risk scores PRIMED Consortium
