Researchers develop new tool to identify genetic risk factors

Thursday, January 30, 2014 - 14:00 in Biology & Nature

Researchers developed a new biological pathway-based computational model, called the Pathway-based Human Phenotype Network, to identify underlying genetic connections between different diseases. The Pathway-based Human Phenotype Network mines the data present in large publicly available disease datasets to find shared SNPs, genes, or pathways and expresses them in a visual form.
