TL;DR: This work model the biological system that relates DNA polymorphisms with complex traits as a linear mixing process and proposes a new fine-scale genetic mapping method based on independent component analysis that outputs both independent associated groups of SNPs in addition to specific associated SNPs with the phenotype.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that clinical variation in AD is genetically modified, setting the stage for future linkage and association studies is supported, with the strongest evidence noted for age at onset and psychosis.

TL;DR: In this article, different domains of linguistics and language activity are discussed, and the power of the linguistic metaphor for biology is raised the awareness about the constraints imposed on tokens in a string of letters as a part of a meaning-making process.
