Identifying the root causes of psychiatric disorders requires a greater understanding of the complex intersection between dysregulated gene expression, the cell type(s) driving it, and its neuroanatomical context. |
Discover how researchers are integrating single cell and spatial transcriptomics technologies to map the underlying circuitry of psychiatric disease in our Psychiatric Disorders Week Symposium, featuring talks from leading researchers, such as: |
