Statistical genetic mapping methods are powerful tools for "nding genes that contribute to complex human traits. Mapping methods combine knowledge of the biological mechanisms of inheritance and the randomness inherent in those mechanisms to locate, with increasing precision, trait genes on the huma
## Abstract Association mapping for complex diseases using unrelated individuals can be more powerful than familyβbased analysis in many settings. In addition, this approach has major practical advantages, including greater efficiency in sample recruitment. Association mapping may lead to falseβpos
