Design and Statistical Analysis of Pooled Next Generation Sequencing for Rare Variants

Next generation sequencing (NGS) is a revolutionary technology for biomedical research. One highly cost-efficient application of NGS is to detect disease association based on pooled DNA samples. However, several key issues need to be addressed for pooled NGS. One of them is the high sequencing erro...
