This book establishes the theoretical foundations of a general methodology for multiple hypothesis testing and discusses its software implementation in R and SAS. These are applied to a range of problems in biomedical and genomic research, including identification of differentially expressed and co-expressed genes in high-throughput gene expression experiments tests of association between gene expression measures and biological annotation metadata sequence analysis and genetic mapping of complex traits using single nucleotide polymorphisms. The procedures are based on a test statistics joint null distribution and provide Type I error control in testing problems involving general data generating distributions, null hypotheses, and test statisticsThis book establishes the theoretical foundations of a general methodology for multiple hypothesis testing and discusses its software implementation in R and SAS.
