Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies have uncovered common variants at many loci influencing human complex traits, such as high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). However, the contribution of the identified genes is difficult to ascertain from current efforts interrogating common variants with small effects. Thus, there is a pressing need for scalable, cost-effective strategies for uncovering causal...
