Such a pleasure to present the @behaviorgenetic.bsky.social Public Science Committee Survey results on researcher engagement in behavioral genetics in beautiful Bologna! 🇮🇹

Our multi-ancestry GWAS of EXTernalizing conditions (ADHD, substance use...) in ~4M people reveals neurodevelopmental risk, drug-repurposing targets, and yields one of the strongest psychiatric polygenic indices yet! 🧬🎉 doi.org/10.64898/202...

Extremely excited to share the first effort of the Revived Genomics of Personality Consortium: A highly-powered, comprehensive GWAS of the Big Five personality traits in 1.14 million participants from 46 cohorts. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

here's one that we put online: neuroanatomy.github.io/cortex/ (takes freesurfer curv data as input or tables with values. Used by @cognitivecamz.bsky.social !)

Out today, our method for comparing multivariate genetic architecture across groups of people, called Genomic Structural Invariance: www.nature.com/articles/s41... (feat: @tuckerdrob.bsky.social @michelnivard.bsky.social @andrewgrotzinger.bsky.social @mijke.bsky.social @jorsmo.bsky.social et al.)

Are mental disorders extreme manifestations of continuous traits or genetically distinct entities? We present Genomic Taxometric Analysis of Continuous and Case-Control data (GTACCC) for evaluating genetic continuity and differentiation of traits across the severity spectrum. Tweetorial coming soon.

Le magazine Parents ressort la fausse information de l’intelligence qui serait transmise par la mère, et est immédiatement recopié par Marie-France et MSN. 🧵

Quels sont les liens entre les différents troubles mentaux? Dans quelle mesure sont-ils dus à des facteurs génétiques communs? Cet article tente d'éclairer ces questions sur la base d'une de nos dernières études, menée par @cognitivecamz.bsky.social et publiée cet été:

Studying sex differences in the human brain is challenging, but important. Many thanks to @emilysingerneuro.bsky.social & the fab folks @thetransmitter.bsky.social for inviting me to contribute to the evolving conversation on this timely topic ⬇️ 1/n

🚨Call for submissions!🚨 We're organizing a special issue on "Behavioral Genetics as a Public Science"🧬🌍 Relevant topics include: -Public outreach and education -(Mis)use and (mis)interpretations of BG research -Ethical, legal, and social issues tinyurl.com/bgpublicscie...

📣 Big news! Our tag-team effort on common variants in rare neurodevelopmental conditions is now out in Nature 📣 Co-first authoring with the brilliant Qinqin Huang🌟—proof that teamwork does make the dream work. 💪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
