Abstract excerpt
Complex diseases are often caused by interplay between genetic and environmental factors. Existing gene-environment interaction (G × E) tests for rare variants largely focus on detecting gene-based G × E effects in a single study; thus, their statistical power is limited by the sample size of the study. Meta-analysis methods that synthesize summary statistics of G × E effects from multiple studies for rare...
