Polygenic Scoring and Translational Health Data Science: A Strategic Analysis of Clinical Readiness and Equity Barriers
The implementation of Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS) represents a fundamental advancement in quantifying the genetic liability for complex diseases. This approach acknowledges that common traits and disorders are influenced not by single variants, but by the cumulative effect of thousands of genetic markers, each contributing an attenuated but measurable impact. Understanding the mechanisms by which these scores are constructed, from basic summation models to sophisticated machi
