Area of Science:

  • Genetics
  • Biostatistics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Disease association studies aim to identify genetic variants linked to diseases.
  • Selecting appropriate genetic markers, like single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), is crucial for study success.
  • Different analytical strategies exist, each with strengths and weaknesses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate and compare various methods for selecting single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in disease association studies.
  • To review test statistics and multiple testing procedures for univariate SNP analysis.
  • To briefly review set association methods and apply selected methods to real-world genetic data.

Main Methods:

  • Comparison of univariate (single marker) and set selection (multiple markers simultaneously) analytical strategies.
