Abstract excerpt
General cognitive function is a prominent human trait associated with many important life outcomes 1,2 , including longevity 3 . The substantial heritability of general cognitive function is known to be polygenic, but it has had little explication in terms of the contributing genetic variants 4,5,6 . Here, we combined cognitive and genetic data from the CHARGE and COGENT consortia, and UK Biobank (total N=280,3...
