TWAS inflation corrected models

2024-11-11 Festus Nyasimi
𝔾iven the pervasive polygenicity of most complex traits, we found that TWAS results can be substantially inflated, yielding many more false positives than expected. We describe the problem and solution in this preprint. We updated the MetaXcan software and prediction models to correct for this … Read more →
