Single-cell multiregion epigenomic rewiring in Alzheimer’s disease progression and cognitive resilience

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive cognitive decline, yet its epigenetic underpinnings remain elusive.

Hypometric genetics: Improved power in genetic discovery by incorporating quality control flags

We introduce "hypometric genetics," an approach to investigate the genetic basis of binarized traits representing the presence of below-the-limit-of-quantification (BLQ) quality …
