U-statistics in genetic association studies.

Human genetics - 1 Sept 2012

Li Hongzhe

Abstract excerpt

Many common human diseases are complex and are expected to be highly heterogeneous, with multiple causative loci and multiple rare and common variants at some of the causative loci contributing to the risk of these diseases. Data from the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and metadata such as known gene functions and pathways provide the possibility of identifying genetic variants, genes and pathways that...
