Identifying significant gene-environment interactions using a combination of screening testing and hierarchical false discovery rate control.

Abstract excerpt

Although gene-environment (G× E) interactions play an important role in many biological systems, detecting these interactions within genome-wide data can be challenging due to the loss in statistical power incurred by multiple hypothesis correction. To address the challenge of poor power and the limitations of existing multistage methods, we recently developed a screening-testing approach for G× E interaction...
