In every civilization, people end up sorted into levels of socio-economic status (SES). We explore the history, present, and future of scientific research on the complicated relationship between SES and DNA in @NatureHumBehav 💰🧬🎓 Link: https://t.co/Q5wAbt2B46 Thread below 👇🏽

Neat study, and interesting that the (very small) non-Education component of income becomes effectively uncorrelated with healthy lifestyle habits and outcomes (smoking, BMI, etc) but not psychiatric conditions (schizophrenia, ASD, OCD).
Our first multi-national GWAS on income is out in @NatureHumBehav 🧬💰 - 162 loci (88 novel) - significant heterogeneity between countries - significant heterogeneity between men and women - unique non-education income effects Open Access Link: https://t.co/hV7ZrIok1G

Want to get out of Dodge? Do a postdoc @UniOslo! You will be using @MoBa_study and registers to study intergenerational transmission and GxE for #MentalHealth and #education using @BehaviorGenetic and @PGCgenetics approaches. Please share! https://t.co/XhRvYGPXzn

I was interviewed about our research into partner similarity and social differences by one of the main Norwegian science news sites: https://t.co/cWTsluDFPS
Vi velger partnere som ligner oss selv, både når det gjelder psykiske og fysiske skavanker.

(1/10) Check out our new paper in Nature Communications! “Non-random mating patterns within and across education and mental and somatic health”. In the paper, we study partner similarities before they (were likely to have) met.

@ZijieZhao1996's paper on controlling for polygenic genetic confounding is published @PNASNews. Many papers control for PGS in regression analysis to remove genetic confounding. We show that this doesn't do anything and provide a solution named PENGUIN

Epidemiologic associations estimated from observational data are often confounded by genetics due to pervasive pleiotropy among complex traits. Many studies either neglect genetic confounding...

🚨New IZA DP: Does the timing of school entry affect personality development? Spoiler: It does - and some effects are quite persistent! Joint with @AntonBarabasch and @CyganRehm, available here 👉 https://t.co/dJxEI5yhfq Details below ⬇️

Very excited to share our new preprint describing a framework for the analysis of PGS in case-parent trios. It allows simultaneous estimation of direct, indirect, and PGSxE interaction effects. @nilanjan10c

Glad that my first paper is now online! @UU_PoliSci There are many ways of investigating the typically observed strong relationship between educational attainment and attitudes toward immigration. Here, I use three natural experiments with Swedish twin data 👇
New article out by @QinyaFeng in Journal of Experimental Political Science! In the paper, she uses not one, not two, but -three- natural experiments in Swedish twin data to scrutinize the relationship between education and attitudes towards immigration.

Fresh article on stability and change in maternal #wellbeing and #mentalhealth! Amazing Lilian Mayerhofer with @ZiadaAyorech @EspenRoysamb and @EivindY @PromentaC uses #moba data from 83,124 mothers to examine (co)development in key aspects of wellbeing:

Some new within-family heritability estimates from MOBA. Large indirect components for attention, hyperactivity, and restrictive and repetitive behaviors. Negative parental/child covariance observed in several cases 🤔 . [ https://t.co/w9LZiKZSXK]

I'm very excited to share our new preprint, where we explore indirect assortative mating on educational attainment. We develop a new framework, and use partners of twins to find that partners are likely sorting on associated environmental factors. 🧵 https://t.co/FEvy4In9vj

A few points of context on the recent study of genetic "underachievers", which speculates (twice!) that genetically targeted early interventions may be more effective by "going with the genetic flow rather than swimming upstream". 🧵 https://t.co/Alw0KnkBoo
Also, with spreads like these in "achievement" at any polygenic score (red box), how exactly are they defining "underachievers" and "overachievers"?

Very happy to learn the systematic knowledge of genomics in combination with social science, become familiar with #HRSData and #AddHealthData, and connect with many researchers from the US who focus on this area. #GeSS #MSCA #ESSGN #ResearchImpactEU
Celebrating our EIGHTH year of Genomics for Social Scientists #GeSS workshops! Many thanks to our participants who joined us this week from all across the world.
