The Genetic Architecture of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss: Evidence for a Gene-by-Environment Interaction

The discovery of environmentally specific genetic effects is crucial to the understanding of complex traits, such as susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). We describe the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) for NIHL in a large and well-characterized population of inbred mouse s...
