Individuals of admixed ancestries (for example, African Americans) inherit a mosaic of ancestry segments (local ancestry) originating from multiple continental ancestral populations. This offers the unique opportunity of investigating the similarity of genetic effects on traits across ancestries within the same population.

The fabrication of stretchable dual network P(HEMA-AM)/gelatin hydrogels as potential delivery carrier In the present work, self-adhesive and self-healing drug loaded poly (hydroxyethyl methacrylate-acrylamide)/gelatin hydrogels with dual networks were synthesized by a facile one-pot method crosslinked with dynamic hydrogen bond and metal-ligand interactions.

AbstractPolygenic scores (PGS) have emerged as the tool of choice for genomic prediction in a wide range of fields from agriculture to personalized medicine. We analyze data from two large biobanks in the US (All of Us) and the UK (UK Biobank) to find widespread variability in PGS performance across contexts. Many contexts, including age, sex, and income, impact PGS accuracies with similar magnitudes as genetic ancestry.
