Advances in genomic analysis of stroke: what have we learned and where are we headed?

Abstract excerpt

As a result of technological advances, the genomic analysis of stroke has shifted from candidate gene association studies to genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Agnostic GWAS evaluate up to 90% of common genetic variation in a single experiment, creating an improved framework for identifying novel genetic leads for biochemical and cellular mechanisms underlying stroke. Given the ubiquity of the GWAS approach,...
