This study identifies 5,552 blood-cell trait-variant associations across 746,667 individuals from 5 global populations, including 71 novel loci and ancestry-specific variants not found in European ancestry populations.

This study identifies 5,106 new genetic variants associated with blood cell traits using large-scale GWAS, highlighting the polygenic and monogenic basis of hematopoiesis.

This study uses Mendelian randomization to show that higher physical activity levels are associated with lower risks of breast and colorectal cancer.

The paper identifies 49 novel blood lipid loci associated with gene-sleep interactions in 126,926 individuals across 5 ancestry groups, with gene-short-sleep interactions explaining 4.25% of triglyceride variance.

This study identifies 46 novel genetic loci associated with alcohol consumption and suggests shared genetic mechanisms with neuropsychiatric disorders using GWAS and functional analyses.
