Text

Researchers from the ENIGMA and CHARGE consortia have recently joined forces to perform a genome-wide meta-analysis of hippocampal and intracranial volume using updated versions of the data analyzed in ENIGMA1. Specifically, both CHARGE and ENIGMA will be meta-analyzing GWAS results from the much more densely sampled 1,000 Genomes reference set; rather than exchanging only the top hits, the entire genome-wide data is being meta-analyzed. In addition, the ENIGMA project will be contributing updated results from many new samples who have joined the effort since the completion of the ENIGMA1 project. This analysis is currently ongoing.
