A method to estimate the contribution of regional genetic associations to complex traits from summary association statistics
Despite considerable efforts, known genetic associations only explain a small fraction of predicted heritability. Regional associations combine information from multiple contiguous genetic variants and can improve variance explained at established association loci. However, regional associations are...
