Tuberculosis (TB) is a disease of antiquity. Yet TB today still causes more adult deaths than
any other single infectious disease. Recent studies show that contrary to the common view …

All humans share certain components of tooth structure, but show variation in size and
morphology around this shared pattern. This book presents a worldwide synthesis of the …

Our knowledge of ancient human population structure in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly
prior to the advent of food production, remains limited. Here we report genome-wide DNA …

While South Americans are underrepresented in human genomic diversity studies, Brazil
has been a classical model for population genetics studies on admixture. We present the …

Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified a large number of SNPs
associated with disease phenotypes. As most GWA studies have been performed in …

Genomic studies in African populations provide unique opportunities to understand disease
etiology, human diversity, and population history. In the largest study of its kind, comprising …

Abstract Background Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) have successfully summarized genome-
wide effects of genetic variants in schizophrenia with significant predictive power. In a …

Some species of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), particularly
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which causes human tuberculosis (TB), are the first cause of …

To leverage the genetic diversity in Nigeria, we established the Non-Communicable
Diseases Genetic Heritage Study (NCD-GHS) consortium to help produce a comprehensive …

Until the mid-1980s studies of steroidogenesis largely depended on identifying steroid
structures and measuring steroid concentrations in body fluids. The molecular biology …
