A scalable Bayesian method for integrating functional information in genome-wide association studies

2017-01-19

Abstract excerpt

Although genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified many risk loci for complex traits and common diseases, most of the identified associations reside in noncoding regions and have unknown biological functions. Recent genomic sequencing studies have produced a rich resource of annotations that help characterize the function of genetic variants. Integrative analysis that incorporates these functional an...
