Incorporating methylation genome information improves prediction accuracy for drug treatment responses
Abstract Background An accumulation of evidence has revealed the important role of epigenetic factors in explaining the etiopathogenesis of human diseases. Several empirical studies have successfully incorporated methylation data into models for disease prediction. However, it is still a challenge t...
