Cool, but looking at the results, it does not actually seem better than others: going from KGP phase 1 to 3, the compres. ratio improves by 2.4x, while others, e.g. XSI improves by 6.4x.
Need a benchmark on large-scale WGS data (I tried, out of curiosity, but I gave up as it requires too much RAM)

🚨 Our parent-of-origin study is out in Nature! 🧬
Maternal and paternal alleles can have distinct — even opposite — effects on human traits, revealing a hidden layer of genetic architecture that standard GWAS miss.

"What makes FIMM special is how seamlessly everything is integrated. Biologists, clinicians, and data scientists work closely together, not just in theory but in practice. On top of that, access to large-scale national data enables us to ask questions that simply couldn’t be explored elsewhere."
