Integration of cell-specific gene expression and chromatin accessibility facilitates localization of neurodegenerative risk in microglia
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many loci that contribute to the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. However, a persistent challenge in interpretation of GWAS is to break loci down to specific genes, variants, and cell types, and thus nominate disease mechanisms. Here, we used iPSC-derived cells...
