Genetic associations with cortical thickness and surface area and their distinct developmental trajectories

2026-05-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>In the human cerebral cortex, surface area follows a more prolonged developmental trajectory than cortical thickness; however, the genetic mechanisms underlying this difference remain unclear. We conducted genome-wide association meta-analyses for 64 cortical traits in 100,628 participants and identified 213 loci for cortical thickness and 417 loci for surface area (45 and 79 new loci),...
