@helenyslin.bsky.social benchmarked polygenic scores (PGS) using genotyping arrays vs whole-genome sequencing (WGS) across traits & populations in @AllofUsResearch. What’s the best approach? The answer is… it depends! 🧵⬇️
Differential performance of polygenic prediction across traits and populations depending on genotype discovery approach
Polygenic scores (PGS) are widely used for estimating genetic predisposition to complex traits by aggregating the effects of common variants into a single measure. They hold promise in identifying ind...

Human genomic researchers need to stop using biased methods (population sampling, racial/ethnicity definitions, & problematic statistical models like UMAP) to misrepresent human diversity.

Eisen: "This paper from @AllofUsResearch needs to be retracted by @nature immediately. Under pretext of inclusivity it features a scientifically invalid representation of genetic diversity and race that is going to feature in racist literature for decades."

Ok, on to the science!

Our first one was led by Noah Fields, who used the @AllofUsResearch cohort to ID 1,496 cancer patients with 3+ affected relatives but no recognized pathogenic variant.
