Two-stage design of sequencing studies for testing association with rare variants.

Abstract excerpt

Multiple rare variants have been suggested as accounting for some of the associations with common single nucleotide polymorphisms identified in genome-wide association studies or possibly some of the as yet undiscovered heritability. We consider the power of various approaches to designing substudies aimed at using next-generation sequencing technologies to discover novel variants and to select some subsets that...
