Exploring Rare Genetic Variation Underlying Metabolic Traits in the Fenland Cohort

Preprint: genetic association study of 11,458 peopleMechanisms
Abstract
Recent large-scale whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies in population biobanks have transformed our understanding of the role of rare protein coding on human health. However, the size and design of these biobanks limit deep phenotyping and genotype-targeted follow-up.
