Challenges for identifying functionally important genetic variation: the promise of combining complementary research strategies.
Strategies for the identification of functional genetic variation underlying phenotypic traits of ecological and evolutionary importance have received considerable attention in the literature recently. This paper aims to bring together and compare the relative strengths and limitations of various potentially useful research strategies for dissecting functionally important genetic variation in a...

The population strategy aims to shift the distribution of a risk factor in the entire population whereas the high-risk strategy targets individuals in the population who are at highest risk of disease and m...
متن کاملDonor research in australia: challenges and promise.
Donors are the key to the core business of Blood Collection Agencies (BCAs). However, historically, they have not been a focus of research undertaken by these organizations. This model is now changing, with significant donor research groups established in a number of countries, including Australia. Donor research in the Australian Red Cross Blood Service (Blood Service) is concentrated in the D...
متن کاملThe promise and challenges of incorporating genetic data into longitudinal social science surveys and research.
In this paper, I argue that social science and genomics can be integrated; however, the way this marriage is currently occurring rests on spurious methods and assumptions and, as a result, will yield few lasting insights. However, recent advances in both econometrics and in developmental genomics provide scientists with a novel opportunity to understand how genes and environment interact to pro...
