From disease association to risk assessment: an optimistic view from genome-wide association studies on type 1 diabetes.
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been fruitful in identifying disease susceptibility loci for common and complex diseases. A remaining question is whether we can quantify individual disease risk based on genotype data, in order to facilitate personalized prevention and treatment for compl...
