The paper introduces a Nextflow workflow for local ancestry-aware GWAS, demonstrating its utility in analyzing admixed individuals and identifying ancestry-specific genetic associations.

This study identifies shared and distinct genetic factors between cognitive traits and schizophrenia using genomic structural equation modelling and GWAS data.

This review examines the link between epigenetic age deviation and mental health in children, finding mixed results with some studies showing associations but no consistent meta-analysis result.

This study identifies 67 genetic loci associated with head size, finding strong overlaps with cancer pathways and genes, suggesting shared genetic mechanisms between head growth and cancer risk.

The paper investigates the genetic architecture of the corpus callosum and its overlap with psychiatric and substance use phenotypes using GWAS summary statistics and causal mixture models.

The paper identifies genetic loci associated with corpus callosum subregion volumes and finds genetic correlations with psychiatric disorders and related traits.

This study identifies genetic loci associated with amygdala nuclei volumes using UK Biobank data, finding both unique and shared genetic architectures and immune-related pathways.

This review identifies polygenic risk scores (PRS) for neurodevelopmental and mental health disorders associating with adverse outcomes in childhood and adolescence, suggesting shared genetic factors across these conditions.

This study examines genetic structure in African populations using ethnolinguistic data, finding that language classifications better capture genetic variation than geography alone.

This study identifies genetic variants linked to longitudinal brain structure changes across the lifespan using MRI data from 15,640 individuals.

The paper identifies genetic loci associated with human cortical structure and finds genetic correlations with neuropsychiatric disorders.

This study identifies genetic variants associated with self-reported childhood maltreatment and finds significant genetic correlations with depressive symptoms.

The paper examines how genetic and environmental factors influence DNA methylation at variably methylated regions in neonatal blood, finding that combined effects best explain methylation variability.

The paper identifies genetic associations with cortical surface area using PCA and GWAS, linking DAAM1 to visual cortex development through mitochondrial pathways and thalamocortical input.

This study identifies genetic overlaps between Tourette Syndrome risk and subcortical brain volumes using GWAS and pleiotropy analysis.

This study conducts the largest GWAS for PTSD, identifying 6 genome-wide significant loci in European and African ancestries and highlighting novel biological pathways.
