Anyone know if the SNP list is publicly available? I'd love check my numbers against my raw 23andMe data to see if I'm smart :)

  The summary statistics are in fact available on the CTG website, but I'm not sure why you would want to bother. The performance of the polygenic score is about the same as the SSGAC polygenic score for Okbay/Selzam et al 2016, so Sniekers et al 2017 isn't all that helpful in that regard. (And in any case SSGAC is expected to come out with a paper this year with n=1m (!) http://programme.exordo.com/bga17/delegates/presentation/214/ http://programme.exordo.com/bga17/delegates/presentation/214... which is expected to at least double the polygenic score performance, so it'll be obsolete soon. And I hear there may be a second group with as large a sample size...)

      There's this dude whose results are already about as good as this new dude's plus this other dude is gonna come out with a totally rad new set of results so you should just wait for those bro.

      If your GWAS has more people, the results are more accurate, and you can detect smaller effects, finding more SNPs that do something. The CTG study had 78,308 people in it, the SSGAC study will have 1,000,000.
