Genome-wide association meta-analysis in 269,867 individuals identifies new genetic and functional links to intelligence

Jeanne E. Savage, +135 more
- 25 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: A large-scale genetic association study of intelligence identifies 190 new loci and implicates 939 new genes related to neurogenesis, neuron differentiation and synaptic structure, a major step forward in understanding the neurobiology of cognitive function as well as genetically related neurological and psychiatric disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Study of 300,486 individuals identifies 148 independent genetic loci influencing general cognitive function

Gail Davies, +257 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors combine cognitive and genetic data from the CHARGE and COGENT consortia, and UK Biobank (total N = 300,486; age 16-102) and find 148 genome-wide significant independent loci associated with general cognitive function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Collaborative meta-analysis finds no evidence of a strong interaction between stress and 5-HTTLPR genotype contributing to the development of depression

Robert Culverhouse, +95 more
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: If an interaction exists in which the S allele of 5-HTTLPR increases risk of depression only in stressed individuals, then it is not broadly generalisable, but must be of modest effect size and only observable in limited situations.

GWAS meta-analysis reveals novel loci and genetic correlates for general cognitive function: a report from the COGENT consortium

Joey W. Trampush, +80 more
- 17 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: Common variation across the genome resulted in a conservatively estimated SNP heritability of 21.5% for general cognitive function, which provides new insight into the genetics of neurocognitive function with relevance to understanding the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric illness.
