Clustering of predicted loss-of-function variants in genes linked with monogenic disease can explain incomplete penetrance
Genome Medicine
by Robin N. Beaumont, Gareth Hawkes, Adam C. Gunning and Caroline F. Wright

Identifying latent genetic interactions in genome-wide association studies using multiple traits
Genome Medicine
by Andrew J. Bass, Shijia Bian, Aliza P. Wingo, Thomas S. Wingo, David J. Cutler and Michael P. Epstein
2w ago
The "missing" heritability of complex traits may be partly explained by genetic variants interacting with other genes or environments that are difficult to specify, observe, and detect. We propose a new kernel ..read more
