Abstract excerpt
In the past two decades, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have pinpointed numerous SNPs linked to human diseases and traits, yet many of these SNPs are in non-coding regions and hard to interpret. Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) integrate GWAS and expression reference panels to identify the associations at gene level with tissue specificity, potentially improving the interpretability. However,...
