The paper imputes fluid intelligence scores in a large cohort, reducing ascertainment bias and increasing power to detect genetic associations with common and rare variants.

The paper investigates factors linked to sexlessness in large populations, finding associations with education, lifestyle, personality, and genetic factors.

This study identifies brain abnormalities and developmental trajectories associated with the onset of six mental health problems in adolescents.

This study investigates genetic links between schizophrenia and arrhythmic disorders, finding specific genetic correlations and causal effects on Brugada syndrome and heart rate.

This study identifies genetic correlations between misophonia and psychiatric disorders, showing strong links with anxiety, PTSD, and specific personality traits.

This paper conducts a GWAS of subclinical obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS) in 33,943 individuals, finding polygenic risk and genetic overlap with OCD.

This study investigates whether deep brain stimulation of the basal ganglia improves conscious perception in OCD patients, finding behavioral improvements but no clear neural effects.

This study identifies 51 psycho-behavioral traits associated with the CADM2 gene through a phenome-wide scan in UK-Biobank, including novel links to sleep and dietary traits.

The paper investigates how genetic correlates of socio-economic status affect shared heritability across mental health traits using genome-wide association summary statistics.

This study identifies strong genetic correlations between genetic generalized epilepsy and background EEG oscillations, particularly in the beta frequency band, suggesting shared biological mechanisms.

The paper extends a genetic correlation analysis of psychiatric disorders by including substance use disorders, revealing changes in the latent genetic factor structure.

This study uses Mendelian Randomization to investigate causal relationships between insomnia and substance use, finding unidirectional and bidirectional effects.

This study shows that lower temporal correlations in resting-state alpha oscillations correlate with higher creativity scores in healthy adults.

This paper investigates genetic correlations between compulsive symptoms and OCD using GWAS and finds novel genes and increased enrichment for brain-related genes when combining symptom data with case-control studies.

The paper uses EEG data to predict age in children and adolescents, finding stable prediction errors and significant genetic influence on brain maturity.

This study uses EEG to compare brain responses to auditory deviants in PTSD patients and trauma-exposed controls, finding enhanced mismatch negativity and altered theta/alpha power in PTSD.
