Mapping the genetic architecture of human cortical expansion and its links to neuropsychiatric disorders

2026-06-26

Abstract excerpt

Cortical expansion is a defining feature of human evolution and neurodevelopment, involving the tangential growth and gyrification of the cerebral cortex. Although disruptions to the expansion of the cortex are implicated in diverse brain-based disorders, the genetic architecture underlying this process remains undercharacterized. Here, we integrated GWAS data for five neuroanatomical phenotypes measured in up to...
