## Abstract Genome‐wide association (GWA) studies require genotyping hundreds of thousands of markers on thousands of subjects, and are expensive at current genotyping costs. To conserve resources, many GWA studies are adopting a staged design in which a proportion of the available samples are geno

## Abstract The much‐anticipated fixed‐array, genome‐wide SNP genotyping technologies make large‐scale genome‐wide association scans now possible for large numbers of subjects. In this paper we reconsider the problem (Satagopan and Elston [2003] Genet Epidemiol 25:149–157) of optimizing a two‐stage
## Abstract We propose optimized two‐stage designs for genome‐wide case‐control association studies, using a hypothesis testing paradigm. To save genotyping costs, the complete marker set is genotyped in a sub‐sample only (stage I). On stage II, the most promising markers are then genotyped in the
