The GA and the GWAS: using genetic algorithms to search for multilocus associations.

Abstract excerpt

Enormous data collection efforts and improvements in technology have made large genome-wide association studies a promising approach for better understanding the genetics of common diseases. Still, the knowledge gained from these studies may be extended even further by testing the hypothesis that genetic susceptibility is due to the combined effect of multiple variants or interactions between variants. Here we...
