Journal ArticleDOI

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

Genome-wide association study of more than 40,000 bipolar disorder cases provides new insights into the underlying biology

Niamh Mullins, +399 more
- 17 May 2021 - 
TL;DR: The authors performed a genome-wide association study of 41,917 bipolar disorder cases and 371,549 controls of European ancestry, which identified 64 associated genomic loci, including genes encoding targets of antipsychotics, calcium channel blockers, antiepileptics and anesthetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

A saturated map of common genetic variants associated with human height

Loic Yengo, +617 more
- 10 Jan 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the authors show that common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are predicted to collectively explain 40-50% of phenotypic variation in human height, but identifying the specific variants and associated regions requires huge sample sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expanding the genetic architecture of nicotine dependence and its shared genetics with multiple traits

Bryan C. Quach, +47 more
- 03 Nov 2020 - 
TL;DR: The results highlight nicotine dependence-specific loci, emphasizing the FTND as a composite phenotype that expands genetic knowledge of smoking, and highlight the heaviness of smoking index.
Posted ContentDOI

Genome-wide association study of over 40,000 bipolar disorder cases provides novel biological insights

Niamh Mullins, +287 more
- 18 Sep 2020 - 
TL;DR: This genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 41,917 BD cases and 371,549 controls identified 64 associated genomic loci, which provides the best-powered BD polygenic scores to date, when applied in both European and diverse ancestry samples.
