Description

The Path web application is a first-step bioinformatics approach to investigate gene-gene interactions in genetic association studies. Path is designed to do: 1. Interface your SNP data with biological information from several online bioinformatics databases. 2. Generate biologically plausible hypotheses for testing gene-gene interactions. 3. Select a subset of SNPs and conduct SNP-SNP interaction tests. 4. Store analysis results. 5. Explore analysis results through interactive plots and summary tables.
