A review and meta-analysis of studies that assess the relationship between the autism polygenic score and autism diagnosis, and autistic, behavioral and neurobiological traits: medrxiv.org/content/10.110… Led by Melanie 🧬🧠

I’m very happy to share that our work on the genetic overlap between schizophrenia and height is now available on medRxiv 🎉 Link: medrxiv.org/content/10.110… quick summary below (1/9)

#OHBM2024 Are you looking for an easy-to-use, interpretable connectomic marker that quantifies the presence of disease-related signatures in the brain? Visit poster 1907 to learn how polyconnectomic scores can enhance your research!

The 7th event is scheduled for November 7th! We're excited to welcome Ilan Libedinsky , PhD candidate from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (inactief) , who will be presenting their work on quantifying brain connectivity signatures by means of polyconnectomic scoring! translational-neuro.org/event-details/…

I'm so happy to share that our paper "Immune-developmental processes contribute to schizophrenia risk: insights from a genetic overlap study with height" has been published in Biological Psychiatry 🥳 biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S0006-…

Our new preprint on "The genetic landscape of heterogeneity in human functional brain connectivity" is available on medRxiv. Check it out! Marijn Schipper, Christiaan de Leeuw, Cato Romero, Koen Helwegen, Danielle, Jeanne Savage and Martijn van den Heuvel. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Hey!! Rachel Brouwer, Martijn van de Heuvel and I wrote a book chapter on the genetics of neuroanatomy. We discuss twin literature on heritability of brain structural traits, followed by a discussion on GWAS findings tinyurl.com/geneticsofneur…

When do machine learning models actually outperform standard polygenic scores? 🤔 In our new preprint, we benchmark how non-additive genetic effects (i.e, dominance deviations) shape polygenic prediction across simulated and UK Biobank traits. 👉 medrxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵 1/6
