A fully joint Bayesian quantitative trait locus mapping of human protein abundance in plasma

Anthony Christopher Davison, Hélène Ruffieux, Radu Popescu, Jörg Hager

Molecular quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses are increasingly popular to explore the genetic architecture of complex traits, but existing studies do not leverage shared regulatory patterns and suffer from a large multiplicity burden, which hampers the ...

A Global-Local Approach For Detecting Hotspots In Multiple-Response Regression

Anthony Christopher Davison, Hélène Ruffieux, Jörg Hager

We tackle modelling and inference for variable selection in regression problems with many predictors and many responses. We focus on detecting hotspots, that is, predictors associated with several responses. Such a task is critical in statistical genetics, ...

Large-scale variational inference for Bayesian joint regression modelling of high-dimensional genetic data

Hélène Ruffieux

Genetic association studies have become increasingly important in understanding the molecular bases of complex human traits. The specific analysis of intermediate molecular traits, via quantitative trait locus (QTL) studies, has recently received much atte ...

Genome-wide gene-based analyses of weight loss interventions identify a potential role for NKX6.3 in metabolism

Patrick Descombes, Hélène Ruffieux, Jörg Hager, Nele Gheldof, Sylviane Métairon

Hundreds of genetic variants have been associated with Body Mass Index (BMI) through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) using observational cohorts. However, the genetic contribution to efficient weight loss in response to dietary intervention remains ...

Efficient inference for genetic association studies with multiple outcomes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Hélène Ruffieux, Jörg Hager

Combined inference for heterogeneous high-dimensional data is critical in modern biology, where clinical and various kinds of molecular data may be available from a single study. Classical genetic association studies regress a single clinical outcome on ma ...
