Brief description We have been working to identify quantitative trait loci for key clinical traits relevant to osteoporosis, for the past 15 years, with substantial success. We recently completed a Genome Wide Association Study and identified 20 loci with strong evidence for a role in the regulation of key bone disease phenotypes. In this project we will extend that highly acclaimed research to study genomic copy number variation and define the role of those genetic variants in osteoporosis.
