Title GenomeSimla
Short Description GenomeSIMLA is currently under development- however, we have a beta release that we are asking to be tested
Long Description GenomeSimla uses Hardy-Weinburg mating to advance simulated genetic data forward through time from generation to generation. Next, we included two distinct algorithms to aide the user in developing various types of disease models: SIMLA for diseases with interactions and main effects and simPEN for embedding purely epistatic models.
