gwascat.download

This function, takes PUBMED ids as an input, searches at the GWAS catalog
for harmonised datasets associated to that, interactively asking the
user to choose if there are more than one, and fetches the dataset.

Quickly computes polygenic scores from GWAS summary statistics of either case-control or quantitative traits without parameter tuning. Reales,G., Vigorito, E., Kelemen,M., Wallace,C.
