Neural connectivity as an intermediate phenotype: brain networks under genetic control.
Human brain mapping - 1 Jul 2009
Meyer-Lindenberg Andreas
Abstract excerpt
Recent evidence suggests that default mode connectivity characterizes neural states that account for a sizable proportion of brain activity and energy expenditure, and therefore represent a plausible neural intermediate phenotype. This implies the possibility of genetic control over systems-level connectivity features. Imaging genetics is an approach to combine genetic assessment with multimodal neuroimaging to...
