While exposure to adverse life events and subsequent dysregulation of the stress hormone response broadly confer risk for depression, the specific molecular mechanisms mediating this risk are poorly understood. Through pharmacologic activation of the stress hormone response in blood cells we demonst...

We used microarray-based expression genomics in 25 inbred mouse strains to identify dorsal root ganglion (DRG)-expressed genetic contributors to mechanical allodynia a prominent symptom of chronic pain. Expression genetics identifies a role for the Chrna6 (alpha 6-nicotinic receptor) gene in pain in...

The Genetics of Type 2 Diabetes Consortium (GoT2D) is a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the Broad Institute and the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics. The overall aim is to extend upon recent efforts, such as genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and large scale meta-analys...
The GoT2D study includes ~2800 samples, half T2D cases and half T2D controls, of Northern European ancestry sequenced over 3 three technologies: deep whole exome sequencing, low-pass (4x) whole genome sequencing, and OMNI 2.5M genotyping. Samples were ascertained to be phenotypically "extreme" (e.g....
