A genome-wide association study identifies susceptibility loci for ovarian cancer at 2q31 and 8q24
Simon Gayther and colleagues report a genome wide association study for ovarian cancer. They identify two new susceptibility loci at 2q31 and 8q24 and two suggestive susceptibility loci at 3q25 and 17q21.

Open AccessLinkage analysis of obesity phenotypes in pre- and post-menopausal women from a United States mid-western population
Obesity has a strong genetic influence, with some variants showing stronger associations among women than men. Women are also more likely to distribute weight in the abdomen following menopause. We investigate...
