The paper integrates GWAS meta-analysis with human brain cell mapping to identify genetic loci and cell types involved in tinnitus, implicating the amygdala and midbrain.

The paper investigates the association between polymorphic transposable elements (TEs) and behavioral traits and BMI in six Italian genetic isolates, finding significant links to health-related phenotypes.

This study identifies genetic signals associated with age at menarche, highlights genes involved in pubertal development, and links reproductive timing to later life disease risk.

This study identifies 43 genomic loci associated with reproductive success in 785,604 individuals, showing ongoing natural selection at the FADS locus.

This study performs a meta-analysis of GWAS to identify new genetic loci associated with all-cause and vascular dementia, revealing shared and distinct risk factors.

The paper uses genetic variation to assess the causal impact of food choices on health outcomes, identifying robust associations between eating patterns and several diseases.

This study identifies 12,111 SNPs associated with height from 5.4 million individuals, explaining most common SNP-based heritability and showing ancestry-specific prediction accuracy.

This study conducts a large-scale GWAS of food liking in 161,625 UK Biobank participants, identifying 1401 associations and revealing genetic correlations with brain traits.

This study identifies 210 genetic loci associated with the PR interval through multi-ancestry GWAS, highlighting their role in cardiac conduction and cardiovascular disease.
