abstract: PAST takes GWAS output and assigns SNPs to genes, uses those genes to find
  pathways associated with the genes, and plots pathways based on significance. Implements
  methods for reading GWAS input data, finding genes associated with SNPs, calculating
  enrichment score and significance of pathways, and plotting pathways.
