## Abstract Estimation and testing of genetic effects (genotype relative risks) are often performed conditionally on parental genotypes, using data from case‐parent trios. This strategy avoids having to estimate nuisance parameters such as parental mating type frequencies, and also avoids generatin

## Abstract Family‐based case‐control studies are popularly used to study the effect of genes and gene‐environment interactions in the etiology of rare complex diseases. We consider methods for the analysis of such studies under the assumption that genetic susceptibility (__G__) and environmental e
## Abstract To evaluate the risk of a disease associated with the joint effects of genetic susceptibility and environmental exposures, epidemiologic researchers often test for non‐multiplicative gene‐environment effects from case‐control studies. In this article, we present a comparative study of f
