🧪 Advances in genetic research have been skewed towards European ancestry populations 📣The broader call of our new study in LLCS is to eliminate this bias through the collection of large, diverse genotype samples and measuring genotypes with arrays designed for multi-ancestry populations🧪 See here ⤵️
