This study fine-maps type 2 diabetes loci to single-variant resolution using high-density imputation and islet-specific epigenome maps, identifying 73 variants with >80% posterior probability of association.

This study investigates the genetic contributions to gestational weight gain, finding that maternal common variants explain about 20% of variability, while fetal variants have a minor role.

The paper identifies targets of selection in the FADS region in Europeans, showing allele frequency changes linked to lipid-related phenotypes and dietary adaptations.
