Imaging genetics

Crossroad between neuroinformatics and bioinfomatics

Bioinformatics

Adapt bioinformatics for imaging-genetics

Variant annotation and prioritization

GWAS conducted in our group aim to identify genetic variants associated with neuro-imaging phenotypes such as cerebral cortex sulci. This project aims to develop methods to annotate and prioritize the variants identified from GWAS in order to identify risk loci among them....

Neuroinformatics

Adapt neuroinformatics for imaging-genetics

Machnine learning

Use state of the art machine learning for imaging-genetics

Cohorts

We participate in imaging-genetics cohort building and access major reference international cohorts

EU cohorts we participate in.

We participate in the building of two major EU cohorts. The IMAGEN cohort has been build since 2010 to study mental health in European adolescent. The EU-AIMS cohort has been build since 2012 to study autism....

International resources we use in imaging-genetics

We use current unvaluable international resources as reference for imaging genetics. In particular we estimate reference values for heritability of image brain phenotypes...
