It has been 15 years since the advent of the genome-wide association study (GWAS) era.
Here, we review how this experimental design has realized its promise by facilitating an …

Genome-wide association studies on human behavioural traits are producing large amounts
of polygenic signals with significant predictive power and potentially useful biological clues …

Gene–environment correlations affect associations between genetic variants and complex
traits in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Here we showed in up to 43,516 British …

We draw on genetics research to argue that complex psychological phenomena are most
likely determined by a multitude of causes and that any individual cause is likely to have …

Humans vary substantially in their willingness to take risks. In a combined sample of over 1
million individuals, we conducted genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of general risk …

The science of reading should be informed by an evolving evidence base built on the
scientific method. Decades of basic research and randomized controlled trials of …

A summary genetic measure, called a “polygenic score,” derived from a genome-wide
association study (GWAS) of education can modestly predict a person's educational and …

The problem of missing heritability, that is to say the gap between heritability estimates from
genotype data and heritability estimates from twin data, has been a source of debate for …

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been used to study the genetic basis of a
wide variety of complex diseases and other traits. We describe UK Biobank GWAS results for …
