Our new study led by Elena Friligkou is on Nature Genetics! Analyzing 1.2M participants, we uncovered genes and biological processes involved in #anxiety risk. Big thanks to current and former #PolimanTEAM members for contributing to this group effort! nature.com/articles/s4158…

We can't believe it's already been 2 weeks since #WCPG24😱 Huge📢shout out📢to our awesome panel and two chairs Mary-Ellen Lynall and Jens Hjerling Leffler ⭐️⭐️🇺🇦⬜️🟥⬜️ for their amazing work! Did you catch us there🧐? Fear NOT! You can find us and our ongoing projects here⏩unc.live/40swzwh⏪

Head to the PGC Consortium main account in the next two weeks to see our takeover!

Delighted to see this out! x.com/MolecularCell/…

2nd big PGC-FG group achievement for our first year was our contribution to the #functionalgenomics of the most recent #GWAS on #bipolardisorder by the PGC !🧪🧬🧠 Check out how #functionalgenomics can help add biological context to #mentalhealth related genetic risk variants !

This concludes the PGC's #functionalgenomics working group's first takeover ! Thank you to all contributors and 🙏 for engaging with us over the past two weeks💻 Hope you liked it ! Follow us PGC-FG to see what is to come in 2025 !

Excited to share our latest paper from a collab w Patrick Sullivan and others where results from two different data-driven approaches (GWAS/human-snRNAseq and fMRI) converge on the amygdala and hippocampus as key regions for schizophrenia: nature.com/articles/s4146… 🧵

Did you know it takes an average of 8 years to diagnose #BipolarDisorder? Newly published research from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (bit.ly/3JkuokY) aims to improve this by learning more about the condition’s biology. Now in Nature: go.nature.com/3PJhi3W

We have not been around for even a year and today we see the first major PGC Consortium paper with a @PGC_FG contribution out in print ! Amazing achievement of everyone involved 🏆🧬💪 #bipolardisorder #nature #GWAS #genetics nature.com/articles/s4158…

Amazing achievement and very exciting to see how #functionalgenomics help to interpret the data 🧬🧠 Check it out to find out the details 👇

🚨 Countdown Alert! 🚨 📢 Less than 1 week to go until the 15th African Society of Human Genetics & 1st Ugandan Society of Human Genetics and Bioinformatics Conference in beautiful Entebbe, Uganda 🇺🇬 💡 Check flyers below for a stellar lineup of workshops #Genetics #AFSHG2025 #Africa

Our first multi-national GWAS on income is out in Nature Human Behaviour 🧬💰 - 162 loci (88 novel) - significant heterogeneity between countries - significant heterogeneity between men and women - unique non-education income effects Open Access Link: nature.com/articles/s4156…

Open Opportunity.......Hosted by Universitetet i Oslo this March, this free online, hands-on training on GWAS analysis is available to Ph.D students on a first come, first serve basis 😀 Register now 👇🏽med.uio.no/klinmed/forskn…

To celebrate #InternationalWomensDay2025 Niamh Ryan and Jessica Mei Kay Yang have been contacting some of the incredible #WomeninSTEM working in the PGC! Stay tuned as we hear about their research, goals and some of the women who have supported their journeys. #WomenSupportingWomen
