I mean, how many people are really needed to run a sufficiently powered genome-wide association study? Are there enough people on the planet? Heather J. Cordell’s review, Detecting gene-gene interactions that underlie human diseases, seems optimistic, but, at this point, it seems a valid question … at least if you want to detect gene-gene interactions.
“The historical lack of success in genetic studies of complex disease can largely be attributed, not to ignored biological interactions, but rather to under-powered studies that surveyed only a fraction of genetic variation …”
