Past Events about Genetics

As part of the yearlong 75th Anniversary celebration, the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is hosting a webinar to explore key advances in genetics and genomics research.

This workshop will be a 3-day interactive event with targeted and coordinated presentations, panel discussions, and demonstrations with the following goals: 1. Foster the development of data standards for the integration and annotation of single-cell genomics data. 2. Systemize and automate the process of data to information to knowledge and develop pipelines where feasible. 3. Shed new insights on brain cell functional studies by using cell atlasing data and cell type-specific targeting tools. 4. Develop strategies with brain disease research communities to maximally leverage BICCN / BICAN data. 5. Develop a community roadmap for the analysis and annotation of single cell data.

During the annual meeting, this open session featured research progress presentations from the Genes to Mental Health Network (G2MH) investigators.

In recognition of World Bipolar Day, NIMH experts conducted a Facebook Live event on bipolar disorder in adults.
