Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Assessing the statistical power to detect susceptibility variants plays a critical role in genome-wide association (GWA) studies both from the prospective and retrospective point of view. Power is empirically estimated by simulating phenotypes under a disease model H1. For this purpose, the gold standard consists in simulating genotypes given the phenotypes (e.g. Hapgen). We introduce here an...
