CGene: an R package for implementation of causal genetic analyses.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG - 1 Dec 2011

Lipman Peter J, Lange Christoph

Abstract excerpt

The excitement over findings from Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWASs) has been tempered by the difficulty in finding the location of the true causal disease susceptibility loci (DSLs), rather than markers that are correlated with the causal variants. In addition, many recent GWASs have studied multiple phenotypes--often highly correlated--making it difficult to understand which associations are causal and...
