Schizophrenia risk variants modulate white matter volume across the psychosis spectrum: Evidence from two independent cohorts

Polygenic risk scores, based on risk variants identified in genome-wide-association-studies (GWAS), explain a considerable portion of the heritability for schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BD). However, little is known about the combined effects of these variants, although polygenic neuroimag...
