Development and pilot testing of a three-dimensional, phenomenon-based unit that integrates evolution and heredity

open access: yesEvolution: Education and Outreach, 2019
To realize the promise of the Next Generation Science Standards, educators require new three-dimensional, phenomenon-based curriculum materials. We describe and report on pilot test results from such a resource—Evolution: DNA and the Unity of Life ...

Genetic Association Studies [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2008
With the completion of the HapMap project1 and the development of technology that allows the examination of ≥1 million genetic polymorphisms at once, genetic association studies are becoming more comprehensive. This article first provides a brief overview of the rationale for genetic association studies; it then discusses the primary features ...

Psychometric precision in phenotype definition is a useful step in molecular genetic investigation of psychiatric disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Affective disorders are highly heritable, but few genetic risk variants have been consistently replicated in molecular genetic association studies. The common method of defining psychiatric phenotypes in molecular genetic research is either a summation ...

The role of 39 psoriasis risk variants on age of psoriasis onset. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple genetic risk factors for psoriasis, but data on their association with age of onset have been marginally explored.

Genetic model misspecification in genetic association studies [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2017
The underlying model of the genetic determinant of a trait is generally not known with certainty a priori. Hence, in genetic association studies, a dominant model might be erroneously modelled as additive, an error investigated previously. We explored this question, for candidate gene studies, by evaluating the sample size required to compensate for ...
