A population genetic approach to mapping neurological disorder genes using deep resequencing.

Deep resequencing of functional regions in human genomes is key to identifying potentially causal rare variants for complex disorders. Here, we present the results from a large-sample resequencing (n  =  285 patients) study of candidate genes coupled with population genetics and statistical methods...
