News and Publications
PRIMED researchers from the FFAIRR-PRS Site have developed new methods to integrate multiple polygenic risk scores to produce more accurate predictions across diverse ancestries. The methods, called PRSMix and PRSMix+, are published in Cell Genomics, featured in a Broad Institute press release, and publicly available on the NHGRI AnVIL cloud platform.
