Efficient Genome-wide Association in Biobanks Using Topic Modeling Identifies Multiple Novel Disease Loci
Abstract Biobanks and national registries represent a powerful tool for genomic discovery, but rely on diagnostic codes that can be unreliable and fail to capture relationships between related diagnoses. We developed an efficient means of conducting genome-wide association studies using combinations...
