A QIMR Berghofer research team have identified 101 regions in the human #genome associated with an increased risk of developing #cataracts. Of these regions, 57 have not been associated with cataracts before. msn.com/en-us/health/other/a… #statisticalgenetics #eyehealth @Sdiaz_torres

New research published in @NatureComms offers a clearer view on the link between #genetics and risk of developing #cataracts 🧬👁️ Read the paper: nature.com/articles/s41467-0… #eyecare #vision #statisticalgenetics @Sdiaz_torres
