  ABSTRACT: Summary Here, we present a large (N=107,207) genome-wide association study (GWAS) of general cognitive ability (g), further enhanced by combining results with a large-scale GWAS of educational attainment. We identified 70 independent genomic loci associated with GCA. Results showed significant enrichment for genes causing Mendelian disorders with an intellectual disability phenotype. Competitive pathway analysis implicated the biological processes of neurogenesis and synaptic regulation, as well as the gene targets of two pharmacologic agents: cinnarizine, a T-type calcium channel blocker; and LY97241, a potassium channel inhibitor. Transcriptome-wide and epigenome-wide analysis revealed that the implicated loci were enriched for genes expressed across all brain regions (most str
