Abstract excerpt
Common genetic variation throughout the genome and rare coding variants identified to date explain about half of the inherited genetic component of epithelial ovarian cancer risk. It is likely that rare variation in the noncoding genome will explain some of the unexplained heritability, but identifying such variants is challenging. The primary problem is a lack of statistical power to identify individual risk...
