The contribution of Neanderthal introgression and natural selection to neurodegenerative diseases

Zhongbo Chen, Regina Hertfelder Reynolds, Antonio F. Pardiñas, Sarah A. Gagliano Taliun, Wouter van Rheenen, Kuang Lin, Aleksey Shatunov, Emil Karl Gustavsson, Isabella Fogh, Ashley R. Jones, Wim Robberecht, Philippe Corcia, Adriano Chiò, Pamela J. Shaw, Karen E. Morrison, , Ammar Al‐Chalabi

This study investigates the role of Neanderthal introgression and natural selection in the heritability of neurodegenerative diseases and finds no significant contribution from either.
