Bio: Imaging Genetics
Despite the numerous successes of genomewide association (GWA) studies, it remains extremely challenging to unravel the genetic basis of most mental and neurodegenerative illnesses because each genetic variant may only have a small contribution to disease outcome and such genetic basis can be very heterogeneous. With modern techniques, it is possible to collect big data from multiple resources in order to better identify and characterize genetic variants that are associated with a specific disease outcome through some intermediate traits, such as imaging measures. In particular, neuroimaging data as the best candidates of such intermediate traits have been/are being widely collected besides genetic and clinical data in connectome genetics. However, there is a severe lack of powerful statistical and computational methods in fully exploiting big imaging and genetic data in order to disentangle the genetic basis of common mental and neurodegenerative diseases.
