Novel Alzheimer’s disease genes and epistasis identified using machine learning GWAS platform

2023-10-05

Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a complex genetic disease, and variants identified through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) explain only part of its heritability. Epistasis has been proposed as a major contributor to this ‘missing heritability’, however, many current methods are limited to only modelling additive effects. We use VariantSpark, a machine learning (ML) approach to GWAS, and BitEpi, a tool for epist...
