Polygenic risk scores are a measure of how likely you are to get a particular health condition—your risk—based on changes in many genes in your DNA. However, these scores are often most accurate for people of European ancestry, because past research left out many other groups. Researchers adjusted polygenic risk scores for 10 common conditions using the diverse genetic data in All of Us so that the scores are accurate for people from a variety of backgrounds….Continue Reading Two School of Medicine Professors Ranked Best Female Scientists in the World
