Goals of this webinar (candidate genes to causal variants):
- To understand when it is practical or (just as often) not practical to try to "clone" the gene or nucleotide variant modulating trait variants
- To understand that defining the crucial causal nucleotide variant is usually a bonus and often not for the translational or even mechanistic utility of discoveries.
- To review new sequence-based methods to identify common and rare variants—the reduced complexity cross and epoch-effects in reference populations
