The paper reports exome sequencing findings in bipolar disorder, identifying AKAP11 as a shared risk gene with schizophrenia through ultra-rare protein-truncating variants.

This study identifies six novel genetic loci, including two rare variants, and shows that a polygenic risk score strongly predicts prostate cancer risk.

The paper identifies putative cis-regulatory elements associated with blood pressure traits using open chromatin and gene expression data, and identifies several candidate genes for further functional testing.
