Linking Quantitative Traits with Molecular Evidence for Alzheimer's Disease

The relationship between genetic variations of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and brain imaging quantitative traits (QTs) is integral in the understanding of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is useful in identifying SNP values as risk factors of developing AD; however, there are still more ways to analyze GWAS results through longitudinal analysis as well as multivariate analysis. In this project, I focused on visualizing GWAS results through PLINK and MultiPhen in R.
