Title of project:
Generation of summary linkage disequilibrium statistics for gene set enrichment analysis using the ALSPAC genotype data
Proposal summary:
This project extends research collaborations with COPSAC within the UK10K project. The project will generate a summary of genetic relationships between genetic variants, which will help to improve the power of gene-set enrichment analyses. The summary of genetic relationships will be available to ALSPAC users and shared with COPSAC.
