Causal modelling of gene effects from regulators to programs to traits
Nature • 12/10/2025 – 12/14/2025
Summary
Researchers have developed a new computational tool that models the causal effects of genes from regulators to traits, enhancing the understanding of genetic interactions and their impact on human traits, as reported by Nature. This approach aims to uncover the genetic basis of traits that have previously eluded Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS).
