Our new findings from the PGC Bipolar working group published today: great team work!
Did you know it takes an average of 8 years to diagnose #BipolarDisorder?
Newly published research from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (bit.ly/3JkuokY) aims to improve this by learning more about the condition’s biology. Now in Nature: go.nature.com/3PJhi3W

Delighted to be awarded #msca postdoc fellowship by @MSCActions to study genetics of human development at @SFFNORMENT with @oleaandreassen.
Big thanks to @UniOslo @DvdM33r @ParekhPravesh for the support.

Genetic liability for both affective spectrum disorder and major psychiatric disorders was associated w symptoms of premenstrual disorders, indicating that premenstrual disorders have overlapping genetic foundations w major psychiatric disorders. ja.ma/3BcKn0c

On March 27, we will run the 4-day online course "Genome-Wide Association Studies: Why, How and then What?" The course primarily targets PhD students at @UniOslo_MED (3 ECTS), but is open to everyone interested. Please RT! med.uio.no/norment/forskning…

If you haven’t had the chance yet, come check out our poster at #NSHGPM2022 today! Using ConjFDR, We identified 40 genetic risk loci w/ mixed effect directions, jointly associated w/ epilepsies and psych disorders, @NordicPrecMed @SFFNORMENT @olavsmeland

Happy to share our new paper in @molpsychiatry🥳! We found: 1) subcortical volumes share substantial SNPs with schizophrenia, 2) shared genes are enriched in neurodevelopmental processes, and 3) two genes are associated with thalamic volume in childhood. nature.com/articles/s41380-0…

🚨Really excited to see this finally out!
🧬Most common genetic variants associated with mental disorders are also associated with others, as well as with cognitive & personality traits.
🧠Conceptual insights on the genetics of mental disorders inbound...
