We thank participants and scientists involved in making the UK Biobank resource available (http://www.ukbiobank.ac.uk/). UK Biobank data used in this study were obtained under approved application 16577. We are deeply indebted to the investigators who comprise the PGC, and to the hundreds of thousands of subjects who have shared their life experiences with PGC investigators. The PGC has received major funding from the US National Institute of Mental Health and the US National Institute of Drug Abuse (U01 MH109528 and U01 MH1095320). Statistical analyses were carried out on the NL Genetic Cluster Computer (http://www.geneticcluster.org/) hosted by SURFsara, and the King's Health Partners High Performance Compute Cluster funded with capital equipment grants from the GSTT Charity (TR130505) and Maudsley Charity (980).
We would like to thank the research participants and employees of 23andMe for making this work possible. Generation Scotland received core support from the Chief Scientist Office of the Scottish Government Health Directorates [CZD/16/6] and the Scottish Funding Council [HR03006]. Genotyping of the GS:SFHS samples was carried out by the Genetics Core Laboratory at the Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Facility, Edinburgh, Scotland and was funded by the Medical Research Council UK and the Wellcome Trust (Wellcome Trust Strategic Award “STratifying Resilience and Depression Longitudinally” [STRADL] Reference 104036/Z/14/Z). Ethics approval for the Generation Scotland was given by the NHS Tayside committee on research ethics (reference 15/ES/0040), and all participants provided written informed consent for the use of their data.
