TITLE:“Longitudinal phenotyping of Severe Mental Illness from Electronic Health Records.” ABSTRACT:Electronic Health Records (EHRs) offer an exciting avenue for large-scale genetic studies of psychiatric disorders in globally diverse populations. As a potential source of inexpensive and longitudinal phenotypes, they are key for the study of severe mental illness trajectories. The Clinica San Juan de Dios […]

TITLE: "Population structure inference for biobank-scale data." ABSTRACT: Inferring the structure of human populations from genetic variation data is a key task in population and medical genomic studies. While a number of methods for population structure inference have been proposed, current methods are impractical to run on biobank-scale genomic datasets containing millions of individuals and […]
