Abstract

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) can require immense sample sizes to identify variants associated with human health across the frequency spectrum. As the Global Biobank Meta-analysis Initiative (GBMI), Zhou et al. describe a collaborative network across 23 biobanks and 2.2 million participants to address challenges of underrepresentation of diversity in genomic research.
