Abstract excerpt
Schizophrenia is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder with a strong genetic component. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous risk variants, but their functional impact on gene regulation remains largely unknown. A major challenge lies in interpreting the function of non-coding variants, which comprise the majority of GWAS hits, making it difficult to determine their functional...
