Genetic background for the major psychiatric disorders in the general Finnish population

Low coverage (4-6x) sequencing on samples from population cohorts (Finrisk, Health2000) will be done at Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (WTSI) using Illumina HiSeq sequencing technology. We will produce 100bp paired end reads. Variants will be called using the 1000 Genomes Project pipeline. The samples have been selected from a national representative set of 8028 samples from persons of 30 years or older, which were screened for psychotic and bipolar disorders using the Composite International Diagnostic Interview, self-reported diagnoses, medical examination, and national registers.
