Rare coding variation provides insight into the genetic architecture and phenotypic context of autism
Some individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) carry functional mutations rarely
observed in the general population. We explored the genes disrupted by these variants from …

Mapping genomic loci implicates genes and synaptic biology in schizophrenia
Schizophrenia has a heritability of 60–80%, much of which is attributable to common risk
alleles. Here, in a two-stage genome-wide association study of up to 76,755 individuals with …
