A Genome Wide Association Study on propensity to motion sickness published by 23andMe gives interesting results, shows validity for self-reported phenotypic information and underlines the value of the model developed by ...

Careful GWAS analysis of a group of mixed-ancestry Latino-American individuals reveals the role of a new “light” variant of the MSFD12 gene which appears to originate in some of the ...

Very large-scale GWAS analyses confirm the genetic complexity of schizophrenia and provide some new leads to understand the etiology of the condition.

GWAS analyses for skin colour performed on a series of diverse African groups reveal new loci involved in this phenotype and, surprisingly, the presence within several African populations of the “light” allele of the SLC24A5 ...

Recently, a systematic (but limited) search for rare variants implicated in adult height, a highly polygenic trait, has uncovered a number of new variants for which the effect size is inversely correlated with the minor ...

The accumulation of extensive repositories linking phenotypic and genetic information, together with new computation methods, makes it possible to derive polygenic scores for susceptibility to common diseases that turn out ...
