Why GWAS aren't so bad after all

My guest this week is Lindsey Criswell, who was recently named the director of the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases. Lindsey has deep experience in clinical rheumatology and human genetics. She talks about the intricacies of medical training and practice, then explains the history and importance of genome-wide association studies and how they set the stage for her current focus on epigenetics.
