Genetic studies of accelerometer-based sleep measures yield new insights into human sleep behaviour

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Samuel E. Jones from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the Article: Genetic studies of accelerometer-based sleep measures yield new insights into human sleep behaviour, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
  • how: To estimate the proportion of variance attributable to genetic factors for a given trait the authors used BOLT-REML to estimate SNP-based heritability (h2SNP) . The authors identified 11 loci associated with accelerometer-derived sleep duration including ten not previously reported to be associated with self-report sleep duration despite the fivefold increase in sample size available for a parallel self-report . . .
