UK Biobank clonal hematopoiesis paper published in Nature

News: July 11, 2018

Our work on mosaic chromosomal alterations in the UK Biobank N=150K interim release has been published in Nature! This study used long-range haplotype phasing information to detect mosaicism in blood at very low clonal fractions (down to ~1%), producing an atlas of 8,342 mosaic events. The...
