Record added by Jurg Ott (the original Rockefeller list)

Full Name

Linkage and Association Modeling in Pedigrees

Version

0.0.9

Description

LAMP carries out parametric association analysis in samples of unrelated individuals, trios or large families. In addition to a test-statistic, a genetic model is estimated for each SNP. The approach is based on retrospective likelihood and can be used to analyze selected samples.
