Genetic risk scores (GRS) quantify polygenic disease risk into a single measure and can aid in disease classification. GRS studies have focused primarily on adult populations of recent European ancestry.

Phenotypic Data to be submitted here include: Self-reported sex, race and ethnicity Diabetes type determined by provider Etiologic diabetes type T1D (antibody positive, or antibody negative/missing and insulin sensitive) T2D (antibody negative and insulin resistant) Diabetes duration (years) Age at diagnosis (years)...
