Researchers unmask unique genetic signatures of more than 560 cell populations across nine brain regions, and lay the groundwork for deeper insights into the biology of brain disorders.
A global collaboration, NeuroGAP-Psychosis, aims to plumb the genetic diversity of psychiatric disease in Africa. Three African site leaders discuss opportunities, challenges, and why the right time for this study is now.
Ó³»´«Ã½ researchers are engaged in a massive effort to expand genetic diversity in psychiatric research, and to increase low and middle-income countries' capacity for large-scale research. One of their first stops: Africa.
The 3,000+ genome-wide association studies (GWAS) published over the last 10+ years have revealed more than 39,000 genetic links to human traits and disease. Has all the effort been worth it? And is there a future for GWAS?
Comparing list of suspect de novo mutations to ExAC reference exomes helps researchers refine the set of mutations thought to play a role in neurodevelopmental disorders
