AffiXcan: A Functional Approach To Impute Genetically Regulated Expression

Impute a GReX (Genetically Regulated Expression) for a set of genes in a sample of individuals, using a method based on the Total Binding Affinity (TBA). Statistical models to impute GReX can be trained with a training dataset where the real total expression values are known.
