To those (twelve or so) of you who have already contacted me,
thanks for the samples. Your DNA is in the freezer. The National
Dermatological Foundation has provided funding to collect sufficient
samples to preform our sib-pair analysis. You might want to look up
March 8, 1996 issue of the journal Science, it has a fascinating
(and understandable) discussion of the approach we are taking to study
complex disease genes.
