A write up in CU Boulder Today can also be found here: Congrats to Dr. Reynolds and the rest of this team on this important piece of work!

You've heard of DNA, but what about GNA? New preprint from @jacksonthorp and IBG member Andrew Grotzinger that introduces Genomic Network Analysis (GNA), an open-source multivariate tool for performing network analysis using GWAS summary statistics

Check out this University of Colorado newsletter that describes work being done by IBG faculty member @dan_gustavson using the VETSA twin dataset to examine genetic and environmental influences on cognitive decline.

📰 New paper out in Nature senior-authored by IBG director @matthewckeller describing the scientific value of family-based sampling in biobanks. This includes estimating direct genetic effects 🧬 that have causal interpretation.

@Lukas_Schaffe 📰Results reveal that the genetic signal unique to autism spectrum disorder significantly overlaps with internalizing disorders and cognitive traits, along with functional annotations and genes associated with this signal. 🧬

🚨Check out this recent paper 📰 from @LydiaRader, @torwager, and @Na_Friedman that finds that chronic pain in young adults is related to updating working memory deficits and and that the relationship appears genetic 🧬

RT @Molas__S: Dont' miss the Molas lab presentations at #sfn2024 !

🚨IBG is hiring for a Tenure Track Assistant Professor! Candidates should have a background in neurogenetics, high-content genomics, experience with iPSC-derived neurons and glia and neural organoids, and expertise in neurodegeneration. More details here:

Link below for a postdoc position for an NIH project evaluating whether music engagement is protective for adolescent substance. The project is led by @dan_gustavson and focuses on twin/family and polygenic score analyses of existing longitudinal datasets.

Congrats to IBG faculty member @dan_gustavson on this very well deserved R01 grant!! We are excited to see what findings our esteemed colleague produces on the science of musicality.

🚨🗞️🧬Check out this new preprint from IBG graduate student Jeremy Lawrence that examines the genetic links between a wide-range of physical illnesses and clusters of psychiatric disorders:

RT @Molas__S: ‼️👇We are seeking a research assistant to join our team. The selected candidate will receive training…

🚨 New preprint from IBG graduate student @Lukas_Schaffe that examines the genetic signal in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is unique of ADHD. Findings reveal clinical correlates, genes, and biological pathways unique to ASD.

🧬New preprint from IBG graduate student @BreunigSophie examining genetic links between immune-mediated and psychiatric factors. Findings reveal unique psychiatric links for factors defined by autoimmune vs autoinflammatory diseases.

🚨Preprint from IBG postdoc @IsabelleFFoote examining the genetic architecture of frailty using Genomic SEM. Analyses reveal seven factors of frailty with unique genetic associations, clinical correlates, and biological pathways.

Congratulations to IBG graduate student @Lukas_Schaffe for receiving the award for best oral presentation at the 2024 BGA Meeting in London! 🏆🥳🧬
