Interrogation of human hematopoiesis at single-cell and single-variant resolution | Nature Genetics

Widespread linkage disequilibrium and incomplete annotation of cell-to-cell state variation represent substantial challenges to elucidating mechanisms of trait-associated genetic variation. Here researchers perform genetic fine-mapping for blood cell traits in the UK Biobank to identify putative causal variants. This study provides a comprehensive framework for single-variant and single-cell analyses of genetic associations.
