Common genetic variation influencing human white matter microstructure

2020-05-25

Abstract excerpt

Brain regions communicate with each other via tracts of myelinated axons, commonly referred to as white matter. White matter microstructure can be measured in the living human brain using diffusion based magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI), and has been found to be altered in patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. Although under strong genetic control, few genetic variants influencing white matter microstructure...
