New Multi-Ancestry Polygenic Score Improves BMI and Obesity Prediction Across the Lifespan
Added: 8 months ago Source:  Radcliffe CVRM
A new multi-ancestry polygenic score (PGS) for body mass index (BMI), developed using genetic data from over 5.1 million people, substantially improves the prediction of obesity across the life course compared to previous scores.¹ The research, which drew data from the GIANT consortium and 23andMe, demonstrates particular value in predicting obesity risk from early childhood and in understanding… View more
