Design considerations in a sib-pair study of linkage for susceptibility loci in cancer
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Modern approaches to identifying new genes associated with disease allow very fine analysis of associaton and can be performed in population based case-control studies. However, the sibpair design is still valuable because it require...
