EPIC: Inferring relevant cell types for complex traits by integrating genome-wide association studies and single-cell RNA sequencing.
More than a decade of genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified genetic risk variants that are significantly associated with complex traits. Emerging evidence suggests that the function of trait-associated variants likely acts in a tissue- or cell-type-specific fashion. Yet, it remains...
