Excited to share a paper by @LauraGphD & @williamreay96 @PrecisionMedUON @Uni_Newcastle @HMRIAustralia https://t.co/BcJ8Luq2Er. LG’s 1st PhD pub with @neuronewy & I leverages shared architecture of schizophrenia and substance use disorders to glean new insight into their biology.

Happy to share our new work - the largest ever genetic study of circulating retinol. We provide novel insight into how genetics regulates serum retinol and its implications for health/disease

(5) Given ⬆️ heritability, genetics may provide a means to identify & prioritise novel treatment opportunities with greater specificity & could be used to identify and refine opportunities for pharmacological interventions 💊🧬

(4) CUD has become the primary use disorder for which individuals seek treatment for globally, surpassing all other substances. To date, no pharmacotherapy has been clearly effective, and there are no approved medications for CUD treatment.
