Improved detection of rare genetic variants for diseases.

Abstract excerpt

Technology advances have promoted gene-based sequencing studies with the aim of identifying rare mutations responsible for complex diseases. A complication in these types of association studies is that the vast majority of non-synonymous mutations are believed to be neutral to phenotypes. It is thus critical to distinguish potential causative variants from neutral variation before performing association tests. In...
