    Section on Statistical Genetics, Department of Biostatistics, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL 35294, USA
    Bioinformatics 28:938-46. 2012
    ..Current LD-based methods use read counts or genotype likelihoods at individual potential polymorphic sites (PPSs). Reads that span multiple PPSs (jumping reads) can provide additional haplotype information overlooked by current methods...

    PLoS Genet 7:e1002382. 2011
    ..The performance of the proposed procedures is further assessed via simulation studies. The methods are implemented in a freely available R package BhGLM (http://www.ssg.uab.edu/bhglm/)...

    Liyan Gao
    Department of Biostatistics, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, AL 35294, USA
    Bioinformatics 27:662-9. 2011
    ..Since transcript length is not related to gene expression, adjusting for such length dependency in GSA becomes necessary...

    Guodong Wu
    Department of Biostatistics, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama, United States of America
    PLoS ONE 6:e21034. 2011
    ..Therefore, there is a need to investigate the statistical issues related to the quantification of methylation levels for these emerging technologies, with the goal of developing an accurate quantification method...

    Genet Epidemiol 35:57-69. 2011
    ..We evaluate the proposed method and compare its performance to existing methods on extensive simulated data. The results show that the proposed method performs well under all situations and is more powerful than existing approaches...
