@OxfordDemSci's GWAS Diversity Monitor monitors the diversity of participants across all published Genome Wide Association Studies 🧬
Joined February 2021
We've teamed up with a new global initiative #Link23, to make genomic tools that work for everyone. Find out more about this community-driven initiative and our GWAS Diversity Monitor ⬇️. @GenomicsEngland @DS_x_HE @OxfordDemSci @LeverhulmeTrust

Thrilled to see our 2020 @NatureGenet study on the #GWASDiversityMonitor, which tracks diversity by disease in real-time, cited nearly 150 times! 🤩 Check out its latest citation in @ScienceMagazine ➡️ @OxfordDemSci @melindacmills @LeverhulmeTrust.

One of the justifiable criticisms of human genetic studies is the underrepresentation of participants from diverse populations. Lack of inclusion must be addressed at-scale to identify causal disease...

Great to see our GWAS Diversity Monitor feature in @theNASEM's recent report on rethinking how race, ethnicity, and ancestry labels are used in #genomics and #genetics research ➡️
Our new report says that researchers should rethink how race, ethnicity, and ancestry labels are used in #genomics and #genetics research. The report provides guidance to help researchers choose appropriate population descriptors for their studies. Read:
