🚨New preprint from PGC SUI!! @pgcgenetics.bsky.social

GWAS meta-analyses of suicidal ideation, attempt, death, and behavior across >50 cohorts identify 77 loci (59 novel), implicate subcortical brain regions, and show suicidality phenotypes are genetically distinct.

Genome-wide association studies identify 77 loci for suicidality and provide novel biological insights
Suicidality is heritable and a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, yet its biological etiology remains largely elusive. We conducted multi-ancestry genome-wide association study meta-anal...
