Higher eQTL power reveals signals that boost GWAS colocalization Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies in human cohorts typically detect at least one regulatory signal per gene, and have been proposed as a way to explain mechanisms of genetic liability...

Excited to share this preprint from first author Jon Rosen, a postdoctoral fellow in the @klmohlke.bsky.social lab and my lab. We examine eQTL study sample size and how this affects signal discovery and rates of colocalization with GWAS.

My group will build new statistical and machine learning tools to uncover disease biology by integrating GWAS with functional omics (transcriptomics, proteomics, etc) data.

We will also explore applications in precision medicine.
