A new science news release examines how Mendelian randomization is being applied in the era of big data to map causal biology, using genetic variants as instruments to infer whether associations between risk factors and diseases are truly causal. The piece highlights the method's growing role in genetics and epidemiology as large-scale genomic datasets become widely available.
