Invited commentary: from genome-wide association studies to gene-environment-wide interaction studies--challenges and opportunities.

Abstract excerpt

The recent success of genome-wide association studies in finding susceptibility genes for many common diseases presents tremendous opportunities for epidemiologic studies of environmental risk factors. Analysis of gene-environment interactions, included in only a small fraction of epidemiologic studies until now, will begin to accelerate as investigators integrate analyses of genome-wide variation and...
