Leveraging fine-mapping and multi-population training data to improve cross-population polygenic risk scores

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) suffer reduced accuracy in non-European populations, exacerbating health disparities. We propose PolyPred, a method that improves cross-population PRS by combining two predictors: a new predictor that leverages functionally informed fine-mapping to estimate causal effects...
