Genome-wide analyses of exonic copy number variants in a family-based study point to novel autism susceptibility genes.
Bucan, Maja; Abrahams, Brett S; Wang, Kai; Glessner, Joseph T; Herman, Edward I; Sonnenblick, Lisa I; Alvarez Retuerto, Ana I; ... (36 authors) (PLoS Genet, 2009-06)The genetics underlying the autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) is complex and remains poorly understood. Previous work has demonstrated an important role for structural variation in a subset of cases, but has lacked the resolution ... -
Heuristics for Inventory Systems Based on Quadratic Approximation of L-Natural-Convex Value Functions
Wang, Kai (2014)We propose an approximation scheme for single-product periodic-review inventory systems with L-natural-convex structure. We lay out three well-studied inventory models, namely the lost-sales system, the perishable inventory ... -
Rare variants create synthetic genome-wide associations.
Dickson, Samuel P; Wang, Kai; Krantz, Ian; Hakonarson, Hakon; Goldstein, David B (PLoS Biol, 2010-01-26)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have now identified at least 2,000 common variants that appear associated with common diseases or related traits (http://www.genome.gov/gwastudies), hundreds of which have been convincingly ... -
