Monumental work by an awesome student !!!!

Neuroimaging of large effect-size genetic risk for neuropsychiatric disorders is gaining traction! This robust effect and can be leveraged to link molecular function to large-scale brain networks.

Our new review in Current Opinion in Genetics & Development: Structural and functional brain alterations in #CNVs overlap with those found in idiopathic #psychiatric conditions but effect sizes are 2 to 5 fold larger @Winkytheelf @JacquemontSeb @meetkd007

Study is out! High-confidence LoF mutations in a large proportion of ASD-genes show moderate relative risk for ASD and are observed in unaffected individuals. Yes, these variants are deleterious, but we overestimate their impact in the clinic!

What is the profile of carriers of autism-associated mutations in the general population? We identified such mutations among >10K autistic and >100K control individuals, but instead of focusing on the "patients", we looked at the non-autistic individuals.👉medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great but can you re-introduce the color coding identifying the type of variant : LoF versus missense? That was super practical !
The #gnomAD browser now displays more #ClinVar data!

New features include:
- ClinVar track includes all classifications
- Clinical significance, plus links to ClinVar, added to the variant table
- ClinVar details added to the variant page
