The importance of accurate phenotyping in large-scale analyses of common disorders such as hearing loss.

Abstract excerpt

Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a common, complex disease with high heritability, but its underlying genetic landscape remains unclear. Studying such a condition requires large cohorts, detailed genotyping, and deep phenotyping.
