Developmental and cellular vulnerabilities underlie genetic architecture of schizophrenia.

A high-resolution cellular and temporal framework of SZ susceptibility is established, implicating mature associative IT microcircuits, deep-layer thalamocortical-regulating networks, and early developmental specification windows as primary points of genetic convergence in SZ.

Joint analysis of GWAS and blood and brain QTL summary statistics reveals potential therapeutic targets for neuropsychiatric disorders

Neurological and psychiatric disorders (NPDs) impose a substantial global burden. Many genetic associations have been reported for a range of NPDs, but the specific genes and proteins underlying susceptibility and their tissue- and cell type-specific manifestations remain poorly understood, hindering the developmen...

Distributed Genetic Effects on Human Brain Structure Emerge Across Multiple Spatial Scales

The findings suggest that genetic influences on brain morphology are expressed across multiple spatial scales, with consequences that may help to guide the design of deep learning methods to discover genomic loci associated with brain structure and brain diseases.

Shared genetic architecture between brain iron deposition and Alzheimer's disease

Brain iron accumulation is well established in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but whether the two share a genetic basis remains unclear. Here, we performed genome-wide association analyses of brain iron across six iron-rich brain regions, quantified via quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) in 38,142 UK Biobank particip...
