BrainSeq

BrainSeq is a research initiative aimed at understanding the genetics of the human brain, particularly in relation to psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. It involves sequencing and analyzing the DNA from brain tissue samples to identify genetic variations that may contribute to these conditions. By comparing the genetic information of healthy individuals with those affected by mental health issues, BrainSeq seeks to uncover biological pathways and potential therapeutic targets, enhancing our understanding of brain health and disease. This initiative represents a significant step towards more personalized approaches in psychiatric treatment.
