Abstract Synopsis

  • The main challenge in genomewide association studies (GWAS) is identifying causal variants since most significant hits are in noncoding regions and linkage disequilibrium spreads effects across multiple variants.
  • Post-GWAS annotation is essential for selecting the most likely causal variants, but existing resources are often time-consuming and lack integrated visual tools.
  • FUMA is a web-based platform that integrates various biological data to help annotate GWAS results, prioritize genes, and visualize data, thus streamlining the process of generating testable hypotheses about causal genetic variants.]
