genetic association  

Definition

  • Analytical epidemiologic studies investigate potential associations between exposures (e.g., risk factors) and outcomes (e.g., as identified in quantitative data on traits or diseases) of interest. Genetic association studies are a special type of analytical epidemiologic studies in which the exposure of interest is represented by a genetic factor.
