🧬 Study of 1,056,201 cases found genetic variants shared across 14 psychiatric disorders, clustered into 5 main factors.
Understanding shared biology could improve treatment, but more diverse genetic datasets urgently needed.

These reflect small, lifelong genetic differences in target activity, not evidence that statins or PCSK9 inhibitors cause depression. But they do suggest that on-target lipid modulation may shape psychiatric vulnerability

Still not getting my feed right, eventhough I think I am following my peers #genetics #humangenetics #genomics #psychiatricgenetics #LatinGen #LatinOMICS
Do I need to change some setting? Come here more often? Like specific posts? Post in English, Spanish?
Dug out my login since rumour has it more people have migrated into the blue skies. Hopefully someone knows how to set up a #PsychiatricGenetics feed?
The #PsychiatricGenetics future has arrived. In 2000, top researchers in the field saw the Human Genome Project as an "immense factory" of gene identification. The factory is now set to close, having produced nothing but highly publicized spurious false alarms in #psychiatry.
