Where this comes from

Abstract

With the recent deluge of mega-biobank data, it is time to revisit what constitutes "replication" for genome-wide association studies. Many replication samples are unavailable or underpowered, therefore alternatives beyond strict statistical replication are needed until the required resources become available.
