For research at the intersection of genetics and neuroscience, the set of 1,271 lead SNPs we identify is a treasure trove for future analyses. For research in social science and epidemiology, the polygenic scores we construct—which explain 11–13% and 7–10% of the variance of EA and cognitive performance, respectively—will prove useful across at least three types of applications.
