Extract

Many medical genetics studies are at least partially sequential, and in considering problems of ascertainment it seems desirable to consider such schemes, in addition to classical ascertainment models. Cannings and Thompson (1978) indicated the correction to the likelihood required when sampling a pedigree sequentially from some predetermined initial event, and Thompson and Cannings (1979) have extended this result and compared sequential sampling with more classical ascertainment models.
