Model life table for captive chimpanzees.

American journal of primatology

Dyke B, Gage TB, Alford PL, Swenson B, Williams-Blangero S.
PMID: 32005046
Am J Primatol. 1995;37(1):25-37. doi: 10.1002/ajp.1350370104.

Mortality statistics from three captive populations of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) were combined to generate standard model life tables for each sex in this species. The model is compared to an estimate of survivorship of a group of wild animals,...

Frailty Index in the Colonias on the US-Mexico Border: A Special Report.

Frontiers in medicine

Manusov EG, Gomez De Ziegler C, Diego VP, Munoz-Monaco G, Williams-Blangero S.
PMID: 34485319
Front Med (Lausanne). 2021 Aug 18;8:650259. doi: 10.3389/fmed.2021.650259. eCollection 2021.

Frailty is the age-related decline in well-being. The Frailty index (FI) measures the accumulation of health deficits and reflects biopsychosocial and cultural determinants of well-being. Frailty is measured as a static phenotype or as a Frailty Index comprising a...

Modeling methylation data as an additional genetic variance component.

BMC proceedings

Almeida M, Peralta J, Garcia J, Diego V, Goring H, Williams-Blangero S, Blangero J.
PMID: 30263043
BMC Proc. 2018 Sep 17;12:29. doi: 10.1186/s12919-018-0128-7. eCollection 2018.

High-throughput platforms allow the characterization of thousands of previously known methylation sites. These platforms have great potential for investigating the epigenetic effects that are partially responsible for gene expression control. Methylation sites provide a bridge for the investigation of...

Genetic influences on dentognathic morphology in the Jirel population of Nepal.

Anatomical record (Hoboken, N.J. : 2007)

Hardin AM, Knigge RP, Duren DL, Williams-Blangero S, Subedi J, Mahaney MC, Sherwood RJ.
PMID: 34981668
Anat Rec (Hoboken). 2022 Jan 03; doi: 10.1002/ar.24857. Epub 2022 Jan 03.

Patterns of genetic variation and covariation impact the evolution of the craniofacial complex and contribute to clinically significant malocclusions in modern human populations. Previous quantitative genetic studies have estimated the heritabilities and genetic correlations of skeletal and dental traits...
