A six-year collaboration led by Verneri Anttila, @bmneale, and colleagues from more than 600 institutions worldwide sheds light on the genetic links between 25 psychiatric and neurological disorders. broadinstitute.org/news/psychiatr…


Discovery Of The First Genome-Wide Significant Risk Loci For ADHD. The largest ever genetic study of #ADHD has been published Orli Bahcall go.nature.com/2KzHNGq


Summary statistics from the #ADHD GWAS are available to download via the PGC Consortium page here: unc.live/2KwKk46

Alcohol dependence (#alcoholism) is a complex disorder, with genes and the environment both contributing to risk. PGC-SUD GWAS, largest to date on alcohol dependence, is now on line: rdcu.be/bb0e6. PGC Consortium

.@bmneale, Raymond Walters & colleagues at Aarhus Universitet, Upstate Medical University, PGC Consortium & #iPSYCH link 12 regions of the genome to #ADHD risk, overlap with behavioral, metabolic, psychiatric traits. fal.cn/SChm

From PGC Consortium SUD group, GWAS of >14k alcohol dependence cases across ancestry and study designs (thanks to 28 cohorts!). Key correlations w/ MDD, other psychiatric disorders and substance use, with signs genetics of dependence and alcohol consumption aren't fully the same. x.com/GWAS_lit/statu…
