Statistical techniques to fine map the related genetic aetiology of autoimmune diseases
2017-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have uncovered many genetic regions which are associated with autoimmune disease risk. In this thesis, I present methods which I have developed to build upon these studies and enable the analysis of the causal variants of these diseases. Colocalization methods disentangle whether potential causal variants are shared or distinct in related diseases, and enable the discovery of...
