1/4 Thrilled to be sharing new work published today in Nature describing the third wave of results from the PGC Cross-Disorder Group. This reflects a massive group effort to examine shared and unique genetic signal across >1 million cases for 14 psychiatric disorders. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Mapping the genetic landscape across 14 psychiatric disorders - Nature
Genomic analyses applied to 14 childhood- and adult-onset psychiatric disorders identifies five underlying genomic factors that explain the majority of the genetic variance of the individual disorders...

In 2018, Charles Murray challenged me to a bet: "We will understand IQ genetically—I think most of the picture will have been filled in by 2025—there will still be blanks—but we’ll know basically what’s going on." It's now 2025, and I claim a win. I write about it in The Atlantic.
Your Genes Are Simply Not Enough to Explain How Smart You Are
Seven years ago, I took a bet with Charles Murray about whether we’d basically understand the genetics of intelligence by now.

My Dobzhansky lecture at BGA: "Theodosius Dobzhansky and the Origins of Radical Behavior Genetics" is publicly available. I talk about the tensions introduced into the field at the difficult border between science using model organisms and human beings. Thanks to BGA for the opportunity.

It makes me wonder
How all faces can be of approximate proportion
But a billion variations.
The same could also be
for thoughts and feelings.
identical matter; varying mind.
The former is acknowledged.
The latter? Hardly appreciated.

You've heard of DNA, but what about GNA? Very excited about this preprint with @jgthorp.bsky.social and others that introduces Genomic Network Analysis (GNA), an open-source multivariate tool for performing network analysis using GWAS summary statistics as input. 1/2

Genomic network analysis characterizes genetic architecture and identifies trait-specific biology
Pervasive genetic overlap across human complex traits necessitates developing multivariate methods that can parse pleiotropic and trait-specific genetic signals. Here, we introduce Genomic Network Ana...

Thanks so much for hosting me and for the insightful questions @camerontellis.bsky.social! Looking forward to an in-person visit to share our recent extensions of this research line
Last week we were wow'd by @jacob-prince.bsky.social who presented his incisive and compelling work on the emergence of category selectivity in computational models. Check out the paper here (www.science.org/doi/pdf/10.1...) and keep an eye out for this rising star!

What happens when we break down DSM diagnoses into their individual symptoms and rebuild our classification system from the ground up? Do we see familiar DSM constructs, HiTOP dimensions, or something else entirely?
New paper out today in CPS! ✨ journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Today, I’m proud to say, our new paper on assortative mating was published. This gives me a good oppurtunity to make my first post on bluesky. Here is the link: doi.org/10.1038/s414... , and here are our key findings 🧵:

Great job students and faculty of the International Statistical Genetics Workshop 2024 in Boulder, what an amazing week it was, as always 🧬❤️🍻
Next year it's GWAS and sequence data analysis again, see you then: colorado.edu/ibg/workshop

Yesterday I taught my first lecture at the International Statistical Genetics Workshop (on gene-environment correlation). I'm very grateful to be part of this group!

Leaving the international statistical genetics workshop in Boulder tired, satisfied, impressed by the students, proud of the new faculty and filled with ideas on how to make the workshop even better.
