Today in @NatureGenetics, we report the discovery of a common CD36 variant specific to individuals of African ancestry that increases risk of DCM, and may help explain the ~2x higher rate of DCM/heart failure in this population nature.com/articles/s4158…

The Million Veteran Program is the @DeptVetAffairs' gift that keeps on giving...critical clues to the etiology and treatment of coronary disease, the #1 cause of death worldwide. Thank you U.S. Veterans and program leadership for making this possible. Let's keep it going!

I'm often asked about the latest GWAS datasets for different cardiovascular traits🧬 🔗This is my list with links to the most recent and largest publicly available GWAS summary statistics for cardiometabolic traits❗️ docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

@pp0196 @mgeorgakis1 @ScienceMagazine If you navigate to phs002453, click on the "Analyses" tab, there is a link at the top to "dbGaP public ftp site". You can get all files directly from there without an application.

@JennyGenetics @mgeorgakis1 @ScienceMagazine As far as i can, one needs to make a request to dbGaP to get the full summary stats. So it is not full public access unless as ot is for GWAS catalog one can just do wget/tabix url anf get the stats

So excited to finally be able to share this work broadly. It was an incredible team to work with and I can't wait to see what the global research community produces from this data.

I’m thrilled to share that our work from the @VAResearch is finally out in @ScienceMagazine ! We dive deep into the genetic architecture of 2,068 traits using data from the VA Million Veteran Program, comprising 635,969 Veteran. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
