Using an atlas of gene regulation across 44 human tissues to inform complex disease- and trait-associated variation.

abstract：:A new study successfully applies complementary whole-genome sequencing and imputation approaches to establish robust disease associations in an isolated population. This strategy is poised to help elucidate the role of variants at the low end of the allele frequency spectrum in the genetic architecture of complex trai...
