Improving polygenic risk prediction in admixed populations by explicitly modeling ancestral-differential effects via GAUDI

Abstract Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have shown successes in clinics, but most PRS methods focus only on participants with distinct primary continental ancestry without accommodating recently-admixed individuals with mosaic continental ancestry backgrounds for different segments of their genomes. He...
