Abstract excerpt
The heritability of common psychiatric disorders has motivated global efforts to identify risk-associated genetic variants and elucidate molecular pathways connecting DNA sequence to disease-associated brain dysfunction. The overrepresentation of risk variants among gene regulatory loci instead of protein-coding loci, however, poses a unique challenge in discerning which among the many thousands of variants...
