WHAT HAVE GWAS studies found?

traditional issues persist

non snp variants importants

lessons from GWAS for understanding common traits or disease

GWAS limitation

linkage vs association

good gene bad gene

example of good gene

human genetic variation

how much genetic variation does an individula possess?

penetrance of genetic variants

the search for diseae causing variants

identifying the genetic casese of highly penetrants disorders

de novo mutations

look at teh epidemiolog of the disease for clues

identifying a casusative de novo mutation

mendelian disease

mendelian diseae

single nucleotide polymorphisims

measures of association the odds ration

odds ratio example
