Abstract excerpt
The advent of simultaneously collected imaging-genetics data in large study cohorts provides an unprecedented opportunity to assess the causal effect of brain imaging traits on externally measured experimental results (e.g., cognitive tests) by treating genetic variants as instrumental variables. However, classic Mendelian Randomization methods are limited when handling high-throughput imaging traits as exposures...
