In March last year, at the age of 35, I was diagnosed with advanced stage III rectal cancer with a metastasis in my liver. This was a shock: I had no family history, and none of the doctors suspected it. In fact, I'd had a negative occult blood test when I went to ER with severe

Congratulations to Joel on the publication of this paper in AJHG. He shows that polygenic scores derived from different quantiles of a phenotype differ, and uses this to come up with an interesting and novel test for confounds and GxE authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…
