We have conducted a number of studies looking at the effects of genetic variation associated with risk for mental illness on brain structure and function.
Research in this area has included studies of the effects of genetic variation in genes including Neuregulin-1, DISC-1 and COMT.
Sample publications
- A neuregulin 1 variant associated with abnormal cortical function and psychotic symptoms, Hall et al 2006
- The effects of a neuregulin 1 variant on white matter density and integrity, McIntosh et al 2008
- The relationship of anterior thalamic radiation integrity to psychosis risk associated neuregulin-1 variants, Sprooten et al 2010
- The effects of DISC1 risk variants on brain activation in controls, patients with bipolar disorder and patients with schizophrenia, Whalley et al 2011
