Longitudinal studies of gene-environment interaction in common diseases--good value for money?

Novartis Foundation symposium - 1 Jan 2008

Robertson Stephen P, Poulton Richie

Abstract excerpt

Prospective cohort studies are costly and time consuming yet appear to be the best means for understanding how genes interact with environmental risk factors to cause disease. This information is a necessary prerequisite for evidenced-based disease prevention, yet not all researchers agree about the importance of studying the interplay between genes and environments. They argue that we already know enough about...
