FinnGen provides genetic insights from a well-phenotyped isolated population

Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height

Ultra-rare disruptive and damaging mutations influence educational attainment in the general population

Novel insights into the genetics of smoking behaviour, lung function, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (UK BiLEVE): a genetic association study in UK Biobank

Defining the role of common variation in the genomic and biological architecture of adult human height

Genome-wide association analysis identifies novel blood pressure loci and offers biological insights into cardiovascular risk

Elevated blood pressure is the leading heritable risk factor for cardiovascular disease worldwide. We report genetic association of blood pressure (systolic, diastolic, pulse pr...

Genomic inflation factors under polygenic inheritance

Population structure, including population stratification and cryptic relatedness, can cause spurious associations in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Usually, the scaled...

Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index

Obesity is globally prevalent and highly heritable, but its underlying genetic factors remain largely elusive. To identify genetic loci for obesity susceptibility, we examined a...
