Journal Article
Schwantes-An, T.-H., Whitfield, J., Aithal, G., Atkinson, S., Bataller, R., Botwin, G., …GenomALC Consortium, G. C. (2024). A polygenic risk score for alcohol-related cirrhosis among heavy drinkers with European ancestry. Hepatology Communications, 8(6), Article e0431. https://doi.org/10.1097/HC9.0000000000000431

Background & Aims: Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) based on results from genome-wide association studies offer the prospect of risk stratification for many common and complex diseases. We developed a PRS for alcohol-related cirrhosis by comparing SNPs am... Read More about A polygenic risk score for alcohol-related cirrhosis among heavy drinkers with European ancestry.

The use of technology in type 2 diabetes and prediabetes: a narrative review (2024)
Journal Article

Vivaldi: An amplicon-based whole genome sequencing method for the four seasonal human coronaviruses 229E, NL63, OC43 & HKU1, alongside SARS-CoV-2 (2024)
Preprint / Working Paper
McClure, C. P., Tsoleridis, T., Holmes, N., Chappell, J. G., Byaruhanga, T., Duncan, J., Tofan, M., Khater, A., Berry, L., Clark, G., Irving, W. L., Tarr, A. W., Ball, J. K., Astbury, S., & Loose, M. Vivaldi: An amplicon-based whole genome sequencing method for the four seasonal human coronaviruses 229E, NL63, OC43 & HKU1, alongside SARS-CoV-2

Prior to the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in 2019, Alphacoronaviruses 229E and NL63 and Betacoronaviruses OC43 and HKU1 were already established endemic ‘common cold’ viral infections. Despite their collective contribution towards global respiratory morbi...
