The Missing Diversity in Human Genetic Studies

March 21, 2019

It has been well documented that genetic studies of human disease, especially large-scale ones, have not captured the level of diversity that exists globally, as they are predominantly based on populations of European ancestry (Popejoy and Fullerton, 2016).
