Description

As genetic data become easier to generate, statistical techniques and methods must be improved to address the harder questions that we can now begin to explore. These include issues of how to analyze very high-density marker maps, how to test for higher order interactions among a potentially large number of genes, and how to efficiently test for association between traits and genetic markers.
