Several methods are used to study gene-gene interactions:
1. Statistical Methods: Techniques like logistic regression and multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) are commonly used. 2. Bioinformatics Tools: Software programs that analyze large datasets to identify potential interactions. 3. Experimental Approaches: Laboratory experiments that specifically test the interaction between different genes.
Each method has its pros and cons, and often a combination of approaches is employed to get a comprehensive understanding.
