Developing a network view of type 2 diabetes risk pathways through integration of genetic, genomic and functional data
Abstract Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several hundred susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D). One critical, but unresolved, issue concerns the extent to which the mechanisms through which these diverse signals influencing T2D predisposition converge on a l...
