Multi-omics cannot replace sample size in genome-wide association studies.

Abstract excerpt

The integration of multi-omics information (e.g., epigenetics and transcriptomics) can be useful for interpreting findings from genome-wide association studies (GWAS). It has been suggested that multi-omics could circumvent or greatly reduce the need to increase GWAS sample sizes for novel variant discovery. We tested whether incorporating multi-omics information in earlier and smaller-sized GWAS boosts...
