Aggression subtyping for improved insight and treatment innovation in psychiatric disorders (AGGRESSOTYPE)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2018,

Aggression is a basic physiological trait with important roles throughout evolution, both in defence and predation. When expressed in humans in the wrong context, aggression leads to maladjustment, social impairment and crime. Despite this, knowledge about aggression aetiology is limited and current treatment strategies are insufficient. Contingent to a subdivision into impulsive and instrumental ...

Intellectual disability (ID) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with a strong genetic component. For many patients the genetic cause is yet unknown as no protein-damaging mutations can be identified. To accurately predict the risk for ID from a person’s complete DNA sequence, it is essential to know how and when genetic perturbation of a gene regulatory element causes abnormal neurodevelopment. The ...
