Genome-Wide Scan Informed by Age-Related Disease Identifies Loci for Exceptional Human Longevity

We developed a new statistical framework to find genetic variants associated with extreme longevity. The method, informed GWAS (iGWAS), takes advantage of knowledge from large studies of age-related disease in order to narrow the search for SNPs associated with longevity. To gain support for our app...
