Effectively identifying eQTLs from multiple tissues by combining mixed model and meta-analytic approaches.
Gene expression data, in conjunction with information on genetic variants, have enabled studies to identify expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) or polymorphic locations in the genome that are associated with expression levels. Moreover, recent technological developments and cost decreases hav...
