New preprint - collab with the groups of @mehurles.bsky.social and @dr-appie.bsky.social. We imputed missing fluid intelligence test scores into ~170k @ukbiobank.bsky.social indivs & showed how this reduces bias and increases power for rare+common variant analyses. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Imputation of fluid intelligence scores reduces ascertainment bias and increases power for analyses of common and rare variants

Studying the genetics of intelligence can help us understand the neurobiology of cognitive function and the aetiology of rare neurodevelopmental conditions. The largest previous genetic studies of int...

Studying the genetics of intelligence measures can help us understand the neurobiology of cognition and neurodevelopmental conditions 🧬🧠 We estimated missing intelligence test scores in @ukbiobank.bsky.social to reduce bias and boost power. Preprint: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1... Thread 👇

Preprint alert! 🚨 doi.org/10.1101/2025... Our manuscript on Exome sequencing and analysis of 44,028 British South Asians, using @genesandhealth.bsky.social is now available at @medrxivpreprint.bsky.social! We present several great results, and I’m thrilled to highlight the pieces I worked on:

Exome sequencing and analysis of 44,028 British South Asians enriched for high autozygosity

Genes and Health (G&H) is a biomedical study of adult British-Pakistani and -Bangladeshi research volunteers enriched for autozygosity. We performed whole exome sequencing in 44,028 G&H participants, ...
