Population stratification and genetic association studies in South Asia [PDF]
Population stratification and its influence on genetic association studies is a controversial topic. Although it has been suggested that stratification is unlikely to bias the results of association studies conducted in developed countries, convincing ...

Multiple Group Testing Procedures for Analysis of High-Dimensional Genomic Data [PDF]
In genetic association studies with high-dimensional genomic data, multiple group testing procedures are often required in order to identify disease/trait-related genes or genetic regions, where multiple genetic sites or variants are located within the ...

Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
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 ...

Population Structure and Cryptic Relatedness in Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
We review the problem of confounding in genetic association studies, which arises principally because of population structure and cryptic relatedness. Many treatments of the problem consider only a simple ``island'' model of population structure. We take

Introduction to Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
Genetic association studies are used to find candidate genes or genome regions that contribute to a specific disease by testing for a correlation between disease status and genetic variation. This article provides a broad outline of the design and analysis of such studies, focusing on case–control studies in candidate genes or regions.
