- Malo N, Libiger O, Schork NJ. Accommodating linkage disequilibrium in genetic-association analyses via ridge regression. Am J Hum Genet. 2008 Feb;82(2):375-85. PMID: 18252218. This paper describes an approach to genetic association analysis that accommodates linkage disequilibrium between sequence variations and that can handle more variations than subjects in a simultaneous analysis of all those variations.
- Torkamani A, Schork NJ. Predicting Functional Regulatory Polymorphisms. Bioinformatics. 2008 Jun 18. [Epub ahead of print] PMID: 18562267. This paper describes a method for inferring the likely regulatory functional significance of DNA sequence variations.
- Neivergelt CM, Libiger O, Schork NJ. Generalized molecular analysis of variance. PLOS Genetics Apr 6;3(4):e51. PMID: 17411342. This paper proposes a general strategy to investigating the relationship between genetic background and an arbitrary phenotype. It’s strength lies in the fact that it does not make any assumptions about the origins of the subjects, the number of subpopulations, etc. and can accommodate covariates.

Am J Hum Genet 2000 67:1208-18. PMID: 11032785. This paper describes an approach to association mapping of human quantitative traits that exploits the use of extreme individuals. It is an approach that is often used in human genetic studies.
