Abstract excerpt
Thorough annotation of common germline genetic variation in the human genome has generated a foundation for the investigation of the contribution of genetics to the etiology and pathogenesis of cancer. For many malignancies, it has become increasingly apparent that numerous alleles, with small-to-moderate effects, additively contribute to cancer susceptibility. The most common genetic variant in the genome, the...
