- Biobanks facilitate genome-wide association studies (GWASs), which have mapped genomic loci across a range of human diseases and traits. However, most biobanks are primarily composed of individuals of European ancestry. We introduce the Global Biobank Meta-analysis Initiative (GBMI)-a collaborative network of 23 biobanks from 4 continents representing more than 2.2 million consented individuals with genetic data linked to electronic health records. GBMI meta-analyzes summary statistics from GWASs generated using harmonized genotypes and phenotypes from member biobanks for 14 exemplar diseases and endpoints. This strategy validates that GWASs conducted in diverse biobanks can be integrated despite heterogeneity in case definitions, recruitment strategies, and baseline characteristics. This collaborative effort improves GWAS power for diseases, benefits understudied diseases, and improves risk prediction while also enabling the nomination of disease genes and drug candidates by incorporating gene and protein expression data and providing insight into the underlying biology of human diseases and traits.

- Spectroscopic ellipsometric measurements of thin polycrystalline (4CuInSe(2))(y)(CuIn5Se8)(1-y) films reveal that there are important differences in optical properties and electronic structures between alpha-phase CuInSe2 and Cu-poor CuInSe2. We report the optical functions of thin-film polycrystalline (4CuInSe(2))(y)(CuIn5Se8)(1-y) and describe how they change depending on the degree of Cu deficiency. We find a reduction in the absorption strength in the spectral region of 1-3 eV for Cu-poor CuInSe2. This reduction can be explained in terms of density of the Cu 3d states in CuInSe2. Cu-poor CuInSe2 samples show an increase in band gap due to reduced p-d interaction. We find that the reduction in the amplitudes of E-0(A,B,C) transitions at the Gamma point and E-1(A,B) transitions at the N point are due to Cu deficiency. Local density approximation calculations with a modeled on-site self-interaction correction of the absorption coefficients of Cu8In8Se16 (CuInSe2), Cu5In9Se16 (CuIn3Se5-like), and Cu2In10Se16 (CuIn5Se8) are in good agreement with those of thin-film polycrystalline CuInSe2 samples with 24.1, 15.6, and 9.1 at. % Cu, respectively.
