## Communicated by Mireille Claustres The focus of most molecular genetics research is the identification of genes involved in human disease. In the 20th century, genetics progressed from the rediscovery of Mendel's Laws to the identification of nearly every Mendelian genetic disease. At this pace,
When planning an affected sib pair collection for use in a genomewide search for complex trait loci, researchers must ask: (a) Which family structures will yield the most informative pairs? and (b) Should recruitment extend beyond the index sib pair? The optimal collection strategy will depend on th
