Fine-mapping genetic associations [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2020
AbstractWhilst thousands of genetic variants have been associated with human traits, identifying the subset of those variants that are causal requires a further ‘fine-mapping’ step. We review the basic fine-mapping approach, which is computationally fast and requires only summary data, but depends on an assumption of a single causal variant per ...
