Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) involve testing genetic variants across the
genomes of many individuals to identify genotype–phenotype associations. GWAS have …

While insomnia is the second most common mental disorder, progress in our understanding
of underlying neurobiological mechanisms has been limited. The present review addresses …

Tobacco and alcohol use are leading causes of mortality that influence risk for many
complex diseases and disorders. They are heritable, and etiologically related, behaviors that …

Insomnia is a heritable, highly prevalent sleep disorder for which no sufficient treatment
currently exists. Previous genome-wide association studies with up to 1.3 million subjects …

Circadian rhythms and sleep are fundamental biological processes integral to human

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, and other adiposity
traits have identified more than 300 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Although …

Sleep reactivity is the trait‐like degree to which stress exposure disrupts sleep, resulting in
difficulty falling and staying asleep. Individuals with highly reactive sleep systems …
