Abstract

There is a pressing need to generate molecular data from diverse tissues across global populations. These currently missing data are necessary to resolve genome-wide association study loci, identify effector genes, and move the translational genomics needle beyond European-ancestry individuals and the minority of diseases for which blood is the relevant tissue.
