Chitwan Valley Family Study (CVFS) Webinar Series

Genetics and Demographic Behavior

DNA Genotyping and Sequencing. A technician at the Cancer Genomics Research Laboratory, part of the National Cancer Institute's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG), washes arrays used in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). These studies search the genome for small variations, called single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs, that occur more frequently in people with a particular disease than in people without the disease.

This webinar will provide an overview of the methods for constructing and analyses of polygenic scores for demographic behavior in CVFS. This will include assesment of appropriateness of GWAS, score construction methods, concerns of portability, correlations with demographic behavior, and use in family-based models. There will be a Q&A session after the presentation.

The webinar will be hosted using Zoom. Registration is required to attend the webinar. Support provided by NICHD (R25 HD101358). Click the link below to register.
