Taiwan’s Population Genomic Research Resource

“Taiwan Biobank: A rich biomedical research database of the Taiwanese population” published in Cell Genomics

This landmark paper provides a comprehensive genetic characterization of the Taiwan Biobank (TWB), detailing population and familial structure, multi-omics resources, and major discoveries. Together, this demonstrated TWB’s contribution to genetic diversity research, which has since increased its visibility and invited global collaborations.
