Methodological challenges of genome-wide association analysis in Africa.

Nature reviews. Genetics - 1 Feb 2010

Teo Yik-Ying, Small Kerrin S, Kwiatkowski Dominic P

Abstract excerpt

Medical research in Africa has yet to benefit from the advent of genome-wide association (GWA) analysis, partly because the genotyping tools and statistical methods that have been developed for European and Asian populations struggle to deal with the high levels of genome diversity and population...
