A polygenic score (PGS) or polygenic risk score (PRS) is an estimate of an individual's
genetic liability to a trait or disease, calculated according to their genotype profile and …

Intelligence—the ability to learn, reason and solve problems—is at the forefront of
behavioural genetic research. Intelligence is highly heritable and predicts important …

Background Polygenic risk score (PRS) analyses have become an integral part of
biomedical research, exploited to gain insights into shared aetiology among traits, to control …

Intelligence is associated with important economic and health-related life outcomes 1.
