🎉 Our new GWAS of anxiety symptom severity is out today in Nature Human Behaviour! It's been a pleasure working on this one as part of the core analyst team, and making the infographics for the @pgcgenetics.bsky.social thread below 👇

Check out our new paper on the second UKB mental health questionnaire! Was a pleasure to work on the coding team (incl. new additions of panic disorder & panic attack algorithms with @megsk.bsky.social). Thanks for leading @katrinadavis.bsky.social & coding lead @jonicoleman.bsky.social!

Thanks also to the coding team (see next bleet) who put together the algorithms for this work, which can be found here: github.com/ColemanResea... (as well as a mirror on the DATAMIND GitHub) (RAP-friendly implementation is a work in progress...!)

2/n Which #anxiety disorders were included & how were they measured? ✅ 5 major anxiety disorders: ‘any anxiety’ approach captures shared genetics across disorder cluster 📝 Anxiety can be measured in different ways: tested heterogeneity across assessment methods & found strong genetic overlap
