Watch @PRSmethods investigators Dave Conti and Sara Cromer present on "Incorporating Polygenic Risk Scores and Social Determinants of Health Across Populations" from the May @AJHGNews, now added to our PRIMED video collection: primedconsortium.org/educati…
The @PRSmethods consortium - in 5 years, going from "Can we predict disease genetically" to "Can we predict disease in a way that's accurate, equitable, and clinically useful across diverse populations?"

ALT Circle of PRIMED themes across discovery and methods, diversity and equity, gene-environment, clinical context, and clinical impact
PRIMED Year in Review: Join us as we look back on some of what @PRSmethods consortium members accomplished in 2025 to help improve genetic risk prediction in global populations 1/
📢New from the @PRSmethods consortium, "Recommendations for responsible use of population descriptors in polygenic risk score development"! H/t to leads @Johanna_L_Smith and @QuanSun98

Attending #ASHG25? Learn how @PRSmethods investigators are improving polygenic risk prediction in diverse populations by visiting these talks and posters docs.google.com/spreadsheets…
Additionally, we make recommendations for policy and practice across all these areas, to inform future research and data sharing efforts 6/
We introduce key policy clarifications and suggested approaches to sharing genomic summary results, such as new polygenic risk score models - a key product of @PRSdiversity 5/
Technical implementation of data sharing in the @useAnVIL cloud platform includes managing access to data storage and analysis workspaces, and developing new tools and workflows 3/
We're delighted to have the @PRSDiversity Perspective featured in @genome_gov "Genomics Landscape," the @NHGRI_Director monthly newsletter - buff.ly/3PsUJjF. The Perspective outlines goals, approaches, and ongoing activities, including new PRS methods and models.
