Discovering patterns of pleiotropy in genome-wide association studies

2018-02-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Motivation</h4> Genome-wide association studies have had great success in identifying human genetic variants associated with disease, disease risk factors, and other biomedical phenotypes. Many variants are associated with multiple traits, even after correction for trait-trait correlation.
