Abstract excerpt
Integrating association evidence across multiple traits can improve the power of gene discovery and reveal pleiotropy. Most multi-trait analysis methods focus on individual common variants in genome-wide association studies. Here, we introduce multi-trait analysis of rare-variant associations (MTAR), a framework for joint analysis of association summary statistics between multiple rare variants and different...
