Genetic determinants of bone mineral density and osteoporosis
Bone mineral density (BMD) is a highly heritable trait, indicating that genetic elements are partly responsible for variation in osteoporosis risk. To further understand the genetic variation underlying osteoporosis, I performed genome-wide association (GWA) studies using designs that have largely n...
