The rapid expansion of global genomic databases has revealed that founder populations are far more common than once recognized, as population-scale sequencing now allows for systematic detection of founder events and founder-like population structure across the world. Contemporary genomic methods facilitate the characterization of founder populations using genetic metrics such as identity by descent, runs of homozygosity, and haplotype-based clustering. As the field shifts from small, ascertained founder cohorts to biobank-scale datasets containing millions of participants, new opportunities and challenges have emerged, including analytical, interpretive, and ethical complexities in the study of founder populations.

Specifically, modern genomics is occurring during a shift toward context-driven, interdisciplinary, and socially robust research that is driven less by traditional values of science and more by relational processes. I review different approaches to engagement, including community-based participatory research, research with patient advocacy organizations, and citizen science/DIY efforts. I then highlight the ethical justification for community engagement in genomic research, including the need to address the history of injustices in genetic science and lack of diversity of participants. Finally, I review some of the challenges of community engagement and where we can look for guidance on practices of knowledge co-production.</p>","PeriodicalId":8231,"journal":{"name":"Annual review of genomics and human genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2026-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147855872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we highlight how loss of nuclear TDP-43 can drive a cascade of events that lead to the impairment of cellular proteostasis and result in a positive feedback loop that perpetuates neuronal dysfunction. This sustains the appearance of cryptic splicing events in genes that are involved in key pathways for the maintenance of axonal homeostasis and synaptic transmission.
