Automated Analysis of Digital Biomarkers and Treatment Response Evaluation from MRI images for People with Bipolar Disorder (Advert Reference: RDF22-R/EE/CIS/ALSHABRAWY)
Bipolar disorder is a severe and highly recurrent mental illness characterised by periods of mania and depression. Bipolar disorder is associated with a substantial morbidity and mortality, significantly reducing lifespan with high rates of suicides and medical comorbidity, such cardiovascular disease. Read more
Modelling Setbp1 haploinsufficiency disorder using hESC derived neurons and cerebral organoid cultures
Human brain development is a process tightly controlled by morphogens and transcription factors in a temporal- and spatial-dependent manner. Read more
A network approach to bipolar disorder: developing a network analysis of the relationship between depression and mania
Project description. Abstract. Bipolar disorder is a severe but complex condition, which may not be entirely separate from the other psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia (Tamminga et al., 2014). Read more

An omics approach to understand and treat KMT2C-related neurodevelopmental disorder using induced pluripotent stem cells and CRISPR-Cas9
Background. We recently identified a novel human syndrome caused by mutations in a gene called KMT2C1. Patients with this condition predominantly have developmental delay and intellectual disability indicating the important function of this gene in brain’s normal development and function. Read more

Dynamic cell fate decisions: linking mechanical signals and protein expression dynamics in the developing eye to understand human developmental disorders
Inherited developmental disorders account for much of childhood visual impairment. Development of the eye requires cell fate decisions that balance stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Read more
A role for cholesterol metabolism in neurodevelopmental disorder
Microdeletions and duplications of the chromosome 15q11.2 region have been identified as a high penetrant risk copy number variance (CNV) to autism and schizophrenia. CYFIP1 (Cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein 1) is generally believed to be the causal risk gene in this CNV. Read more
