New preprint just dropped! 🧬🦠 For this project, we looked at the genetic relationships between psychiatric disorders and immune-mediated diseases. Check out the preprint here: medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… TL;DR below🧶

Our first ever conference presentation using CoTEDS data!✨Joanna presented her research on how parental mental health might influence parenting & child behaviours, using two generations of data across TEDS and CoTEDS at the Life History Research Society Conference in Montreal!🌏

Congratulations to Dr Julian Mutz who has been awarded a King's Prize Fellowship!👏 As part of the Fellowship, he will develop a novel measure to predict #health and #lifespan using molecules found in the blood. Read more🔗 kcl.ac.uk/news/dr-julian…

Postdoctoral role in statistical genetics at NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) & SGDP Centre KCL. Research in genetics and polygenic scores, to advance care for mental disorders. Collaborative projects, good for a new PhD with comp. & stat skills. Please RT! kcl.ac.uk/jobs/095205-po…

If you are interested in trans-ancestry populations and cognitive function, please come have a chat about the first singapore cognition GWAS. Poster nr 72 , poster session 1 #WCPG2024 #GWAS #SG100k

Honoured to receive the Gershon Paper of the Year Award from @ispgnet at #wcpg2024 in Singapore! This award is especially meaningful as it represents the joint effort with my incredible husband, Timothy Powell. Grateful to everyone who supported us along the way! #LGBTinSTEM

Great talk by Chris Lo 💊🧬🧠 on the final day of #WCPG2024 mood disorder session discussing SRRI switching, it’s current utility and future prospects. ISPG SGDP Centre KCL

Glad to share our work on antidepressant switching with UK Biobank on #WCPG2024 , and has garnered loads of interest! Many thanks for ISPG for offering us the opportunity to share our work and supervision from Dr Cathryn Lewis Michelle Kamp for making this work possible.

I think this JAMA article from last week received insufficient attention - different computations of PRS for the same disease, despite nearly identical population performance, resulted in very different classifications at the individual level jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

🚨So delighted to see this work looking at the genetic overlap between depression symptoms and Alzheimer’s disease now published in Nature Mental Health Springer Nature🚨 Read the paper here: 👉 nature.com/articles/s4422…

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-…

New publication! Biological Psychiatry We expand on our prior work demonstrating that pleiotropic effects of cognitive GWAS can provide biological insights into schizophrenia GWAS results. We differentiated "concordant" from "discordant" subsets of schizophrenia risk SNPs (1/3)
