Published in 2022 at "EMBO reports"

DOI: 10.15252/embr.202255197

Abstract: Transposable elements (TEs) are active in neuronal cells raising the question whether TE insertions contribute to risk of neuropsychiatric disease. While genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) serve as a tool to discover genetic loci associated with… read more here.
