Care to clarify what the biological insight without predictive power means? i think they’re trying to indicate that obviously explaining 15% of the phenotypic variance means that their genes won’t be...

I’m maybe the only statistical geneticist in the world not an author on that paper, but I can take a stab at DK’s question. The key here is that these genes are definitely associated with height — far...

At the moment we are merely trying to scramble in the dark with very limited knowledge of the underlying complexity. I doubt these studies are teaching us anything new at all. One has got to start...
