Abstract excerpt
The Affymetrix GeneChip Human Mapping 500K array is common for genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Recent findings highlight the importance of accurate genotype calling algorithms to reduce the inflation in Type I and Type II error rates. Differential results due to genotype calling errors can introduce severe bias in case-control association study results. Using data from the Wellcome Trust Case Control...
