- The Dark Matter of Genomic Associations with Complex Diseases: Explaining the Unexplained Heritability from Genome-Wide Association Studies
Held February 2-3, 2009 in Bethesda, Md. The Dark Matter of Genomic Associations with Complex Diseases: Finding the Unexplained Heritability from Genome-Wide Association Studies workshop was convened to examine the potential sources of missing heritability and propose research strategies, including and extending beyond current genome-wide association study approaches, in order to illuminate the genetics of complex diseases.
- Epidemiology for Researchers Performing Genetic/Genomic Studies
Held July 18, 2008 in Bethesda, Md. at Natcher Auditorium, NIH campus, this short course was for investigators and trainees doing research in human genetics, particularly studies employing genomic analyses of samples from human populations. It consisted of eight lectures aimed at familiarizing researchers studying the human genome with basic principles and potential pitfalls of epidemiology as applied to human genome research.
