“…The possibility of finding these candidates is empowered by the significant impact (effect size) of drug response phenotypes such as adverse drug reactions and treatment outcomes, in contrast to other complex traits such as disease susceptibility and health [ 2 ]. The most highlighted impact of genomics is the inter-population variation, particularly the African genomic diversity, which could provide tools for improved understanding of individual variability in disease and pharmacology [ 3 ]. Since most studies are carried out on non-African populations (Asians and Caucasians), a smaller portion of the overall human genome's diversity is interrogated and results from replication studies do not always concur.…”
