摘要

尽管非洲有着巨大的遗传多样性，但其人口在全球基因组数据集中的代表性不足。在此，我们描述了为解决这一不平等现象而发起的泛非倡议“kidney genafrica”的愿景，并呼吁开展更具包容性的基因组学研究，认识到非洲在遗传变异方面的关键作用以及对慢性肾脏疾病产生见解的潜力。

KidneyGenAfrica, a pan-African partnership to deliver research and training excellence in genomics of kidney disease

Despite Africa’s vast genetic diversity, its populations are underrepresented in global genomic datasets. Here we describe the vision of the KidneyGenAfrica, a pan-African initiative launched to address this inequity, and call for more inclusive genomics research that recognizes Africa’s key role in genetic variation and potential to generate insights in chronic kidney disease.

期刊介绍： Nature Genetics publishes the very highest quality research in genetics. It encompasses genetic and functional genomic studies on human and plant traits and on other model organisms. Current emphasis is on the genetic basis for common and complex diseases and on the functional mechanism, architecture and evolution of gene networks, studied by experimental perturbation. Integrative genetic topics comprise, but are not limited to: -Genes in the pathology of human disease -Molecular analysis of simple and complex genetic traits -Cancer genetics -Agricultural genomics -Developmental genetics -Regulatory variation in gene expression -Strategies and technologies for extracting function from genomic data -Pharmacological genomics -Genome evolution
