Genome-wide association studies and susceptibility to infectious diseases.

Briefings in functional genomics - 1 Mar 2011

Newport Melanie J, Finan Chris

Abstract excerpt

Progress in genomics and the associated technological, statistical and bioinformatics advances have facilitated the successful implementation of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) towards understanding the genetic basis of common diseases. Infectious diseases contribute significantly to the global burden of disease and there is robust epidemiological evidence that host genetic factors are important...
