Abstract excerpt

Identification of genes predisposing their carrier to complex diseases is a much more complicated task than finding genes involved in simple mendelian diseases. The slow progress in the genetic research of complex diseases could be due to limitations in the basic research strategy, which is almost exclusively orientated to the detection of disease-related DNA mutations or polymorphisms. I argue in this article...
