The first paragraph of the article is below, as is a link to the full article by Manolio et al. (subscription required):\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFirst paragraph: Genome-wide association studies have identified hundreds of genetic variants associated with complex human diseases and traits, and have provided valuable insights into their genetic architecture. Most variants identified so far confer relatively small increments in risk, and explain only a small proportion of familial clustering, leading many to question how the remaining, \u0027missing\u0027 heritability can be explained. Here we examine potential sources of missing heritability and propose research strategies, including and extending beyond current genome-wide association approaches, to illuminate the genetics of complex diseases and enhance its potential to enable effective disease prevention or treatment.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFull article:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.nature.com\/nature\/journal\/v461\/n7265\/abs\/nature08494.html?lang=en\u0022\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.nature.com\/nature\/journal\/v461\/n7265\/abs\/nature08494.html?lang=en\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"Professor Greg Gibson is a coauthor on a review article entitled \u0022Finding the missing heritability of complex diseases\u0022 that appeared in the 8 October issue of the journal \u003Cem\u003ENature\u003C\/em\u003E.","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Gibson coauthors Nature review on complex diseases"}],"uid":"27245","created_gmt":"2009-10-12 00:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:11:13","author":"Troy Hilley","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2009-10-12T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2009-10-12T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"102071":{"id":"102071","type":"image","title":"Greg Gibson","body":null,"created":"1449178166","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:29:26","changed":"1475894720","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:45:20"}},"media_ids":["102071"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.biology.gatech.edu\/faculty\/greg-gibson\/","title":"Greg Gibson"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.biology.gatech.edu\/","title":"School of Biology"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.nature.com\/","title":"Nature.com"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.nature.com\/nature\/journal\/v461\/n7265\/abs\/nature08494.html?lang=en","title":"Article"}],"groups":[{"id":"1275","name":"School of Biological Sciences"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003ESchool of Biology\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBiology\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:admin@biology.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EContact School of Biology\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404-894-3700\u003C\/strong\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["admin@biology.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
