In a new study, researchers describe the development and validation of a multi-ancestry polygenic risk score (PRS) for AD that performs much better than previously constructed ones, especially for genetically diverse groups. This expanded representation of population groups is crucial for developing more robust and universally applicable PRS models, which can improve risk prediction among an ancestrally diverse group of patients.

A new study that combines paleoclimate data and climate models suggests that large volcanic eruptions can disrupt the relationship between atmospheric circulations of the tropical Indian and Pacific oceans. In addition, human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are now driving an unprecedented breakdown in inter-basin coupling, according to researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI).

Many rotator cuff repairs fail due to a variety of factors that could be addressed by a new fix that imitates the body’s natural environment
