## Abstract Despite the importance of geneβenvironment (GΓE) interactions in the etiology of common diseases, little work has been done to develop methods for detecting these types of interactions in genomeβwide association study data. This was the focus of Genetic Analysis Workshop 16 Group 10 con
Many complex diseases are likely to be a result of the interplay of genes and environmental exposures. The standard analysis in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) scans for main effects and ignores the potentially useful information in the available exposure data. Two recently proposed methods t
