Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Given that genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of psychiatric disorders have identified only a small number of convincingly associated variants (single nucleotide polymorphism [SNP]), there is interest in seeking additional evidence for associated variants with tests of gene-gene interaction. Comprehensive pair-wise single SNP-SNP interaction analysis is computationally intensive, and the penalty...
