Abstract

Before the GWAS (genome-wide association study) era, many genetic determinants of disease were found via analysis of multiplex pedigrees, that is, by looking for genetic markers that run in families in a similar way as disease. GWAS advent has robbed pedigree analysis of its luster. Future scientific methodology seesaw might bring pedigree analysis back into the spotlight.
