Ashraf, B., Hunter, D. C., Bérénos, C., Ellis, P. A., Johnston, S. E., Pilkington, J. G., Pemberton, J. M., & Slate, J. (2022). Genomic prediction in the wild: A case study in Soay sheep. Molecular Ecology, 31(24), 6541-6555. https://doi.org/10.1111/mec.16262

Genomic prediction, the technique whereby an individual's genetic component of their phenotype is estimated from its genome, has revolutionised animal and plant breeding and medical genetics. However, despite being first introduced nearly two decades... Read More about Genomic prediction in the wild: A case study in Soay sheep.

Individual Participant Data Meta-analysis of the Impact of Educational Interventions on Pupils Eligible for Free School Meals (2021)
Journal Article
Ashraf, B., Singh, A., Uwimpuhwe, G., Higgins, S., & Kasim, A. (2021). Individual Participant Data Meta-analysis of the Impact of Educational Interventions on Pupils Eligible for Free School Meals. British Educational Research Journal, 47(6), 1675-1699. https://doi.org/10.1002/berj.3749

Meta-analysis is the synthesis of findings from research projects, which enables an estimate of the average or pooled effect across various studies. This study presents findings from the intention to treat analysis for a series of educational evaluat...

Genetic drift from the out-of-Africa bottleneck leads to biased estimation of genetic architecture and selection (2021)
Journal Article
Ashraf, B., & Lawson, D. J. (2021). Genetic drift from the out-of-Africa bottleneck leads to biased estimation of genetic architecture and selection. European Journal of Human Genetics, 29(10), 1549-1556. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41431-021-00873-2

Most complex traits evolved in the ancestors of all modern humans and have been under negative or balancing selection to maintain the distribution of phenotypes observed today. Yet all large studies mapping genomes to complex traits occur in populati...
