Abstract excerpt
The characterization of gene-environment interactions (GEIs) can provide detailed insights into the biological mechanisms underlying complex diseases. Despite recent interest in GEIs for rare variants, published GEI tests are underpowered for an extremely small proportion of causal rare variants in a gene or a region. By extending the aggregated Cauchy association test (ACAT), we propose three GEI tests to...
