Ensemble genomic analysis in human lung tissue identifies novel genes for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Abstract Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) significantly associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, many genetic variants show suggestive evidence for association but do not meet the strict threshold f...
