Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Previous studies have shown a relationship between schizophrenia and cannabis use. As both traits are substantially heritable, a shared genetic liability could explain the association. We use two recently developed genomics methods to investigate the genetic overlap between schizophrenia and cannabis use. METHODS: Firstly, polygenic risk scores for schizophrenia were created based on summary...
