The paper describes the MoBaPsychGen pipeline for quality controlling and imputing genotyping data from the MoBa cohort, identifying extensive family relationships across 207,569 individuals.

LT-FGRS estimates genetic liabilities from large-scale family data, unifying methods into an R package for efficient population-scale analysis.

The paper develops longitudinal models to identify non-additive genetic effects on developmental plasticity, finding 76 novel loci involved in regulatory interactions.

This study uses Trio-GCTA to analyze direct and indirect genetic effects on educational achievement using parent-offspring trios, finding genetic contributions and gene-environment correlations.

The paper develops a framework to estimate genetic and social homogamy using family data and finds that indirect assortative mating better explains educational attainment similarities than direct assortment.

This paper conducts a genome-wide association meta-analysis of age at onset of walking, identifying 11 loci and showing genetic correlations with ADHD, BMI, intelligence, and brain structure.

The paper shows genetic similarity between relatives can indicate assortative mating, finding evidence in nine traits and increased genetic variance in offspring for six of them.

The paper examines how genetic and brain similarities predict childhood anthropometric and socioeconomic traits using a mixed model framework in the ABCD cohort.

The paper analyzes cortical asymmetry across age and datasets, finding stable areal asymmetry and developmental changes in thickness asymmetry, with genetic and phenotypic associations.

The paper estimates how parents' cognitive and non-cognitive skills affect offspring education through environmental effects using polygenic scores and multiple study designs.

The paper introduces Trio-GCTA, a model to separate direct and indirect genetic effects in parent-offspring trios, applied to four phenotypes using real data.

This study uses genomic analysis of parent-offspring trios to estimate the genetic nurture effect on child anxiety and depression symptoms at age 8, finding significant influence on depression but not anxiety.
