Deprecation notice

This repository contains the original reference implementation of the PrediXcan method. It is now considered deprecated and exists only for reference purposes.

Active development is now conducted at the MetaXcan repository. Tutorial for this new version is here

PrediXcan

PrediXcan is a gene-based association test that prioritizes genes that are likely to be causal for the phenotype.

Do you have only summary results? Try MetaXcan, a new extension of PrediXcan that uses only summary statistics. No individual level data necessary.
