Combining functional annotation and multi-trait fine-mapping methods improves fine-mapping resolution at glycaemic trait loci

Jana Soenksen, Ji Chen, Arushi Varshney, Susan F. Martin, MAGIC, Stephen C.J. Parker, Andrew P. Morris, Jennifer L. Asimit, Inês Barroso

This paper combines multi-trait fine-mapping and functional annotation to improve the identification of causal variants at glycaemic trait loci, reducing the number of likely causal variants significantly.
