Title HAPGEN
Short Description A simulator for the simulation of case control datasets at SNP markers
Long Description HAPGEN2 is a an updated version of the program HAPGEN, which simulates case control datasets at SNP markers. The new version can now simulate multiple disease SNPs on a single chromosome, on the assumption that each disease SNP acts independently and are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. We also supply a R package that can simulate interaction between the disease SNPs. We hope to add further facilities to simulate quantitive traits and admixture soon.
