Aggregative trans-eQTL analysis detects trait-specific target gene sets in whole blood

Large-scale genetic association studies have identified many trait-associated variants that influence gene expression. Here, the authors present ARCHIE, a tool for identifying sets of genes whose regulation may be related to specific complex traits.
