title: 'metalcor: Meta-Analysis of Correlated Genetic Association Studies'
version: 1.0.0
abstract: 'The main function performs meta-analysis of genetic association study summary
  statistics that may be correlated due to cryptic relatedness or other confounders,
  generalizing inverse variance weighted methods. The function that estimates the
  correlation structure is also provided standalone. Another key innovation, the estimation
  of the correlation parameter from the median product of correlated standard normal
  variables, is provided, as well as a complete set of functions for their underlying
  distribution: density, cumulative, quantile, and random deviates. Described in Tu
  and Ochoa (2025) <https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.10.653279>.'
