Complimentary Methods for Multivariate Genome-Wide Association Study Identify New Susceptibility Genes for Blood Cell Traits

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have found hundreds of novel loci associated with full blood count (FBC) phenotypes. However, most of these studies were performed in a single phenotype framework without putting into consideration the clinical relatedness among traits. In this work, in additio...
