This study identifies 52 genetic variants associated with adolescent-onset depression through a large GWAS, revealing age-specific mechanisms and potential drug targets.

The paper evaluates how haplotype estimation and whole genome imputation accuracy vary with data integration protocols and phasing methods in a large psychiatric biobank dataset.

The paper infers parent-of-origin effects in the UK Biobank using a novel probabilistic method, identifying 101 significant associations across 59 biomarkers and 38 phenotypes.

This study identifies four novel genetic loci associated with multiple psychiatric disorders, implicating fetal neurodevelopment as a key mediator of shared genetic risk.

This study identifies a fetal genome-wide association signal near pro-inflammatory cytokine genes on 2q13 linked to gestational duration and preterm/postterm birth.

FastQTL efficiently maps QTLs by correlating molecular phenotypes with genetic variants using permutation-based p-value estimation, improving speed over previous methods.
