Background: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been extremely successful in finding genetic loci underlying human inheritable disorders.In the past 10 years, more than 13,000 susceptible loci have been reported in almost 2,000publications.Unfortunately, only a handful of these loci have been mapped to specific functional variants that deliver insight into the mechanisms of these disorders.In this study, we demonstrate a fine-mapping strategy that refines these large and ambiguous GWAS loci to small high quality subsets that contain the causal and functional variants.
