      “Getting the Most out of Available Resources”

      One of the biggest challenges in the world of genomics is reaching enough sample size in order to identify extremely small effects of genetic loci on risk of complex diseases. Large cohort studies in developing world such as the Persian Gulf Healthy Heart Study are precious resources in this regard. While the research budget in developing world is limited, allocation of international financial support may help these cohort studies contribute to better understanding of gene-disease associations.

      Conflicts of interest: I've worked with the Persian Gulf Healthy Heart Study in the past.
