New preprint - collab with the groups of @mehurles.bsky.social and @dr-appie.bsky.social. We imputed missing fluid intelligence test scores into ~170k @ukbiobank.bsky.social indivs & showed how this reduces bias and increases power for rare+common variant analyses. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Imputation of fluid intelligence scores reduces ascertainment bias and increases power for analyses of common and rare variants
Studying the genetics of intelligence can help us understand the neurobiology of cognitive function and the aetiology of rare neurodevelopmental conditions. The largest previous genetic studies of int...

This is very interesting and highly relevant paper to clinical genetics and rare disease researchers. I wrote the accompanying News & Views piece. Free sharing link here: rdcu.be/d0VlK

Common genetic variants contribute more to rare diseases than previously thought | Nature
In rare diseases, rare mutations have long been thought of as the only contributor. Genetic analyses of people with such conditions now suggest that the effects of common genetic variants can stack up and contribute to disease risk. Assessing the influence of common mutations on rare disease risk.
