Most psychiatric GWAS are Eurocentric, limiting relevance across ancestries. Latin America’s genetic and environmental architecture offers a chance to advance global discovery. See the recent review by the Latin American Genomics Consortium (LAGC)🌎📷🧬 nature.com/articles/s4158…
O LAGC-SCZ foca em desvendar as bases biológicas da esquizofrenia em populações latinas. Estamos reunindo pesquisadores que trabalhem com essas populações #esquizofrenia #psiquiatria #genética @SintiaBelangero @LAGCPsychGene

From Methods working group of the @LAGCPsychGene : A great and interesting work about Local Ancestry Inference (LAI) that is a promising strategy to leverage this admixture across the genetics studies. Congrats @mauer_jh @egatkinson @MarcosSantoro9 ! Check it out

Hello, everyone! Over the next two weeks, I'd like to invite you to learn what is being done to understand psychiatric disorders in Latin American populations. If you're interested, join us! @LAGCPsychGene #latinamerican #genetics
I am delighted to announce that @mauer_jh’s first paper with me is up on biorxiv! Their work thoroughly evaluates features affecting local ancestry inference across many (I mean many) simulated demographic and data models to advise on best practices.

A great oppportunity for learning a important tool for admixed population analysis. @LAGCPsychGene @egatkinson @MarcosSantoro9 @roseannpeterson #latinpopulation #geneticspopulation #statistics

Very exciting to have our newest PGC-PTSD freeze out! Growing diversity and sample sizes are still affording exponential increases in identifying loci influencing PTSD risk. Check out Joni’s wonderful tweetorial for more.
Today is #PurpleDay - a time to raise awareness about epilepsy. So let's spread the word that #epilepsy is a chronic noncommunicable brain disorder that affects around 50 million people of all ages worldwide. ilae.org @yesILAE
Dr. @MingshanXue et.al @bcmhouston & @TexasChildrens have discovered distinct roles for inhibitory & excitatory #neurons in #STXBP1 encephalopathy, which is among the top 5 causes for pediatric #epilepsies: bit.ly/3TbIiLF @SfNJournals @CureEpilepsy

Pleased to share our international collaborative effort on "SCN1A Prediction Model" using clinical and genetic biomarkers to predict Dravet syndrome versus other GEFS+ phenotypes in over 1000 patients. n.neurology.org/content/early/… Thanks to all collaborators! @LalDennis, @EdoPerezP
Publication alert! Feng et al. Brain Commun. We show that poorer baseline language ability, more severe epilepsy severity and worse SCN1A genetic score predict worse outcome in DS at 10-year F/U. Identified biomarkers emphasise importance of early focused therapies in DS.

The first day in #WCPG2023 was amazing. Education day in pharmacogenetics testing (love this issue) and application of genetics in psychiatric clinical care. However, the plenary about researchers talking their psychiatric diagnosis and studying psychiatric conditions was rock!!
