The paper performs a transcriptome-wide association study on human lifespan and validates findings in Drosophila, identifying COASY as a gene involved in ageing across species.

This paper identifies genetic loci associated with short and long sleep duration through a cross-population meta-analysis and explores their genetic correlations and causal relationships with depression.

This paper conducts a multi-ancestry GWAS of major depression, identifying 190 loci and 354 genes, with findings showing increased fine-mapping power and bidirectional BMI relationship in European ancestry samples.

This study identifies 12,111 SNPs associated with height from 5.4 million individuals, explaining most common SNP-based heritability and showing ancestry-specific prediction accuracy.

A coronary artery disease GWAS of 181,522 cases among 1,165,690 participants yields 241 associations (54 new); an eight-predictor consensus nominates 185 candidate causal genes, 94 with ≥3 predictors.
