## Abstract Though multiple interacting loci are likely involved in the etiology of complex diseases, early genomeβwide association studies (GWAS) have depended on the detection of the marginal effects of each locus. Here, we evaluate the power of GWAS in the presence of two linked and potentially
## Abstract Genomeβwide caseβcontrol association study is gaining popularity, thanks to the rapid development of modern genotyping technology. In such studies, population stratification is a potential concern especially when the number of study subjects is large as it can lead to seriously inflated
## Abstract In this paper we investigate the power to identify gene Γ gene interactions in genomeβwide association studies. In our analysis we focus on twoβstage analyses: analyses in which we only test for interactions between single nucleotide polymorphisms that show some marginal effect. We give
In genome-wide association studies (GWAS), it is a common practice to impute the genotypes of untyped single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) by exploiting the linkage disequilibrium structure among SNPs. The use of imputed genotypes improves genome coverage and makes it possible to perform meta-analys
