Abstract excerpt
Advances in human genetics have led to epidemiological investigations not only of the effects of genes alone but also of gene-environment (G-E) interaction. A widely accepted design strategy in the study of how G-E relate to disease risks is the population-based case-control study (PBCCS). For simple random samples, semiparametric methods for testing G-E have been developed by Chatterjee and Carroll in 2005. The...
