Genome-wide association study identifies 14 novel risk alleles associated with basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma is a common skin lesion and the risk loci for this cancer are beginning to be understood. In this study, the authors conduct a two-stage genome-wide association study and confirm known risk loci and identify an additional 14 loci.
