The study aims to analyze diverse genetic datasets and advance precision medicine for common heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders.
Researchers from the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) have analyzed diverse genetic datasets in an effort to advance precision medicine for minority populations.
The early analysis is part of a large-scale program funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), and examines one of the largest and most diverse datasets of high-quality whole genome sequencing – which makes up a person’s DNA.
The program aims to provide new insights into heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders and how these conditions impact people of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds, who are often underrepresented in genetic studies.
