TL;DR: A genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals with clinically assessed or self-reported depression identifies 44 independent and significant loci and finds important relationships of genetic risk for major depression with educational attainment, body mass, and schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results indicate that ATGL is rate limiting in the catabolism of cellular fat depots and plays an important role in energy homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Causal associations between risk factors and common diseases inferred from GWAS summary data

TL;DR: A generalized summary-based Mendelian Randomization (GSMR) method which uses summary-level data from GWAS to test for causal associations of health risk factors with common diseases.

TL;DR: It is shown that polygenic adaptation signals based on large numbers of SNPs below genome-wide significance are extremely sensitive to biases due to uncorrected population stratification and that population-level differences should be interpreted with caution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale GWAS reveals insights into the genetic architecture of same-sex sexual behavior

TL;DR: This genome-wide association study of same-sex sexual behavior identifies loci associated with human sexual orientation that suggest links to biological pathways that involve sex hormone regulation and olfaction and investigates the biology and complexity of the trait.
