Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) significantly advanced our understanding of the genetic underpinnings of diseases. However, challenges persist, particularly in interpreting non-coding variants in linkage disequilibrium that affect genes in disease-relevant cells. Addressing key obstacles-identifying causal variants, uncovering target genes, and understanding their network impact-is crucial. This graphical review navigates advanced techniques to fully leverage GWAS for future therapeutic breakthroughs.
