Network propagation for GWAS analysis: a practical guide to leveraging molecular networks for disease gene discovery.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have enabled large-scale analysis of the role of genetic variants in human disease. Despite impressive methodological advances, subsequent clinical interpretation and application remains challenging when GWAS suffer from a lack of statistical power. In recent years, however, the use of information diffusion algorithms with molecular networks has led to fruitful...
