Abstract excerpt
Since the first genome-wide association studies (GWASs), thousands of variant-trait associations have been discovered. However, comprehensively mapping the genetic determinant of complex traits through univariate testing can require prohibitive sample sizes. Multi-trait GWAS can circumvent this issue and improve statistical power by leveraging the joint genetic architecture of human phenotypes. Although many...
