Polygenic risk score for schizophrenia is more strongly associated with ancestry than with schizophrenia

2018-03-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The polygenic risk score (PRS) for schizophrenia, derived from very large numbers of weakly associated genetic markers, has been repeatedly shown to be robustly associated with schizophrenia in independent samples and also with other diseases and traits. <h4>Aims</h4> To explore the distribution of the schizophrenia PRS in subjects of different ancestry. <h4>Method</h4> The schizophrenia PRS...
