The importance of context: uncovering species- and tissue-specific effects of genetic risk variants for type 2 diabetes
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been highly successful in identifying genetic variation associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk and related quantitative traits (1–3). The vast majority of association signals are located in non-coding regions of the genome, influencing nearby genes thr...
