Genome-wide association analyses of chronotype in 697,828 individuals provides insights into circadian rhythms

Genome-wide association analyses of chronotype in 697,828 individuals provides insights into circadian rhythms

GWAS have previously found 24 genomic loci associated with chronotype, an individual’s preference for early or late sleep timing. Here, the authors identify 327 additional loci in a sample of 697,828 individuals and further explore the relationships of chronotype with metabolic and psychiatric disea...
