Association score testing for rare variants and binary traits in family data with shared controls.

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies have been an important approach used to localize trait loci, with primary focus on common variants. The multiple rare variant-common disease hypothesis may explain the missing heritability remaining after accounting for identified common variants. Advances of sequencing technologies with their decreasing costs, coupled with methodological advances in the context of association...
