Forum Discussion: The Future of Imaging Genetics?
|
|
 |
There has been much head-scratching about how to follow up leads about individual risk variants in the genomes of people with schizophrenia. Perhaps there will be more to be gleaned from combinations of genetic polymorphisms. Writing in Schizophrenia Bulletin, an international team led by Stefan Ehrlich of Dresden University of Technology in Germany presents data that a polygenic risk score can be associated with prefrontal inefficiency, as measured
|
by functional magnetic resonance imaging.
In our Forum Discussion "journal club" series, the editors of journals provide access to the full text of a recent article. SRF thanks the Maryland Psychiatric Research Center and Oxford University Press, publishers of Schizophrenia Bulletin, for kindly providing open access to the article for this discussion. Editor Vishwajit Nimgaonkar of the University of Pittsburgh gets us started with a short introduction and some questions, and then it's up to our readers to share their ideas, insights, questions, and reactions.
