Abstract excerpt
With the rise of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the analysis of typical GWAS data sets with thousands of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has become crucial in biomedicine research. Here, we propose a new method to identify SNPs related to disease in case-control studies. The method, based on genetic distances between individuals, takes into account the possible population substructure, and avoids...
