This study identifies sex-specific genetic loci and correlations for alcohol use behaviors and their comorbidities using genome-wide association studies.

This study identifies 1,294 genomic regions and 961 effector genes associated with externalizing disorders, revealing neural mechanisms and polygenic predictors of variance in these conditions.

This paper conducts GWAS on cannabis use frequency and lifetime use, identifies genetic loci, and shows genetic correlations with other traits and diseases.

This study identifies 343 genetic loci for chronic pain in 1.2 million individuals, revealing pleiotropy with psychiatric disorders and brain structures.

This study performs a multi-ancestral GWAS of DSM-defined nicotine dependence, finding genetic correlations with other substance use disorders and health traits, and identifying a strong general addiction liability factor.

This study identifies 14 genome-wide significant loci for delay discounting in 134,935 individuals and shows genetic associations with 212 medical conditions.

This study compares GWAS results of coffee intake from 23andMe and UK Biobank, finding discrepancies in genetic correlations with health traits and highlighting cultural differences in gene-cohort influences.

This study identifies genetic loci associated with alcohol use disorder and consumption, finding distinct genetic architectures and variants with direct effects on AUD.

This study performs a multi-ancestry meta-analysis of tobacco use disorder using electronic health records, identifying 88 risk loci and 461 potential risk genes, and linking TUD to various health outcomes.

This paper conducts a multivariate GWAS of AUDIT items to correct biases and identify novel genetic associations between alcohol consumption, misuse, and health outcomes.
