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

Ageing and brain white matter structure in 3,513 UK Biobank participants.

TL;DR: Results from this unusually large, single-scanner sample provide one of the most extensive characterizations of age associations with major white matter tracts in the human brain, with negative age associations strongest in the thalamic radiation and association fibres.
