Estimating the proportion of variation in susceptibility to schizophrenia captured by common SNPs

Schizophrenia is a complex disorder caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Using 9,087 cases, 12,171 controls and 915,354 imputed SNPs from the Psychiatric GWA Consortium for schizophrenia (PGC-SCZ) we estimate that 23% (s.e. 1%) of variation in liability to schizophrenia is captured by S...
