PGSC, a new method from my student Renée Fonseca, shows that gene-context interactions can robustly improve prediction. PGSC gains can be large, replicate across ancestries and cohorts, and largely survive on the log scale, unlike PGS amplification. biorxiv.org/content/10.648…
www.biorxiv.org Locus-specific gene-context interactions improve polygenic prediction Polygenic scores (PGS) are a primary output of large-scale genetic studies and are being deployed in clinical and non-clinical settings. However, current PGS assume simple additive models that ignore...

Monotone convex transformations of an additive phenotype induce sign-consistent GxE--new preprint from @sadowskimich, Noah Zaitlen and Richard Border
New preprint. We show that a wide class of outcome transformations and endogenous treatment effects induce sign-consistent gene-environment interaction (GxE) effects. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

GxDrug interactions now published at cell genomics :) @sadowskimich did a ton of great work in this paper. We hope the approach is a step toward improving predictions for individual-specific treatment response
Our work using gene-environment interaction methods to study the genetics of drug response is now out in @CellGenomics. @CellPressNews
