Abstract excerpt
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a childhood-onset neurodevelopmental disorder with a large genetic component1. It affects around 5% of children and 2.5% of adults2, and is associated with several severe outcomes3-11. Common genetic variants associated with the disorder have been identified12,13, but the role of rare variants in ADHD is mostly unknown. Here, by analysing rare coding variants in...
