Using the Genetic Architecture of Substance Use Disorders to Advance Gene Identification and Understanding of Pathways of Risk

Project Summary This project has two complementary goals: (1) to advance discovery of genes involved in substance use disorders using new multivariate genomic techniques, and (2) to characterize the risk associated with identified variants in diverse longitudinal samples in order to understand the spectrum of phenotypes associated with identified variants, across development, and in conjunction with the environment. Each of these areas represents critical steps in using genetic data to improve prevention, intervention, and treatment for substance use disorders (SUDs), and will lay the foundation as we move into an era of personalized medicine. Human gene identification efforts for substance…
