    Coexpression patterns define epigenetic regulators associated with neurological dysfunction 
    Boukas, Leandros; Havrilla, James M.; Hickey, Peter F.; Quinlan, Aaron R.; Bjornsson, Hans; Hansen, Kasper D. (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2019-03-11)
    Coding variants in epigenetic regulators are emerging as causes of neurological dysfunction and cancer. However, a comprehensive effort to identify disease candidates within the human epigenetic machinery (EM) has not been performed; it is unclear ...

    Genome-wide association and transcriptome studies identify target genes and risk loci for breast cancer 
    Ferreira, Manuel A.; Arason, Adalgeir (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-04-15)
    Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 170 breast cancer susceptibility loci. Here we hypothesize that some risk-associated variants might act in non-breast tissues, specifically adipose tissue and immune cells from blood and ...
