A data harmonization pipeline to leverage external controls and boost power in GWAS

2020-12-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> The use of external controls in genome-wide association study (GWAS) can significantly increase the size and diversity of the control sample, enabling high-resolution ancestry matching and enhancing the power to detect association signals.
