Comparison of HapMap and 1000 Genomes Reference Panels in a Large-Scale Genome-Wide Association Study by Paul S. de Vries (701679)

“…The genome-wide significance threshold of 5×10⁻⁸ is based on the number of independent statistical tests using HapMap imputation, and 1000G imputation may lead to further independent tests that should be corrected for. When using a stricter Bonferroni correction for the 1000G GWA study (<i>P</i>-value < 2.5×10⁻⁸), the number of loci significant only using HapMap imputation increased to 4 while the number of loci significant only using 1000G decreased to 5. …”

Effect of tunable directional persistence on tests of motion bias for a simple mathematical model of stochastic swimming paths. by Leah Armon (178552)
