This study identifies 58 genomic regions associated with meiotic recombination, 24 of which are sex-specific, and finds a moderate genetic correlation between male and female recombination rates.

This study investigates DNA methylation differences on the X chromosome in ART-conceived versus naturally-conceived newborns, finding sex-specific methylation changes linked to neurodevelopmental processes.

This paper introduces a new method for one-sample Mendelian Randomization that reduces bias from weak instruments and enables cross-ethnic analysis.

Wavelet Screening improves GWAS power by reducing tests and considering joint SNP effects, showing better performance than traditional methods and SKAT in simulations.

This study identifies 99 genes associated with autism spectrum disorder through large-scale exome sequencing, showing differences in mutation frequencies between ASD and severe neurodevelopmental delay groups.
