Laying a solid foundation for Manhattan : 'setting the functional basis for the post-GWAS era' / by Xiaoyang Zhang
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 8,900 genetic variants, mainly single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), associated with hundreds of human traits and diseases, which define risk-associated loci (Hindorff et al., 2012 ...

Distances and motions of early-type galaxies in selected directions in the South Equatorial Strip.
Galaxies -- Motion in line of sight
The new APM South Equatorial Strip Catalog $({-}17\sp\circ.5<\delta<2\sp\circ.5)$ is used to select a sample of early-type galaxies in three directions: (1) 15h10-16h10; (2) 20h30-21h50; (3) 00h10-01h30. The distances and peculiar motions of...
