Jeffrey Barrett, Tarjinder Singh and colleagues present a meta-analysis of rare coding variants and copy number variants in a large collection of schizophrenia cases and controls, combined with de novo mutation data from family trios. They find that rare, damaging variants contribute to risk of schizophrenia both with and without intellectual disability and that there is overlap between genetic risk for schizophrenia and other neurodevelopmental disorders.
