Abstract excerpt
Psychiatric disorders are complex, polygenic conditions characterized by patterned structural brain alterations. Whether these changes reflect transcriptional dysregulation driven by genetic risk remains unclear. We introduce a novel imaging-transcriptomics framework that integrates transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) with brain transcriptomic atlases to predict macroscale structural brain abnormalities...
