✨✨We are thrilled to share 2 new papers published this week in:
#BiologicalPsychiatry: Genetic heterogeneity shapes brain connectivity in psychiatry
dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.biop…

#Brain: Brain connectivity mirrors genetic pleiotropy in psychiatric conditions academic.oup.com/brain/advance-… 1/7 #Polygenicity (=multiple genetic variants associated with one condition) and #pleiotropy (=one genetic variant influencing more than one trait) are key properties of the genomic architecture of #psychiatric conditions and represent major challenges in identifying mechanisms.
