Exploring the potential benefits of false discovery rates for region-based testing of association with rare genetic variation
When analyzing the data arising from exome or whole-genome sequencing studies, window-based tests, i.e. tests that jointly analyze all genetic data in a small genomic region, are very popular. However, power is known to be quite low for finding associations with phenotypes using these tests, and h...
