Ancestry-specific predisposing germline variants in cancer
Abstract Background Distinct prevalence of inherited genetic predisposition may partially explain the difference of cancer risks across ancestries. Ancestry-specific analyses of germline genomes are required to inform cancer genetic risk and prognosis of diverse populations. Methods We conducted ana...
