Testing for direct genetic effects using a screening step in family-based association studies
In genome wide association studies (GWAS), families based studies tend to have less power to detect genetic associations than population based studies, such as case-control studies. This can be an issue when testing if genes in a family based GWAS have a direct effect on the phenotype of interest o...
