2/2 The consequences of this alleged data breach for everyone, and particularly for the targeted ancestry groups, are extremely concerning

[Natassia Robinson @natass_robinson]

1/2 As someone who has likely had their genetic info leaked in the 23andMe hack & as a genetics researcher (who knows the lengths we go to to keep data safe and anonymised), 23andMe need to be held accountable for their incredibly poor security practices

Excited to share my recent work on family genetic risk and environmental risk factors for SCZ & BD, swing by poster #99 later today if interested!

Only 1 more week until abstract submission closes for the MEG-UK annual meeting in Birmingham on November 3rd, for information on submission: https://t.co/4fwGpKiaKp

(5/5) We also found higher risk in children of migrant parents & generally worse outcomes for male migrants - full details & conclusions in the paper!

[Natassia Robinson @natass_robinson]

(1/5) In our recently published study on migration in Sweden, we conducted a matched case-control study to investigate several characteristics of migrants & risk of schizophrenia & bipolar https://t.co/fHKIBRQ9xK

[Natassia Robinson @natass_robinson]

(4/5) Despite regional variation, after controlling for age at migration, risk of SCZ was comparable across regions (bar Africa) & stratifying by age revealed elevated risk of BD for childhood migrants from Nordic countries

New register-based study @SchizBulletin exploring impact of #EarlyLifeFactors on risk for #SCZ & #BD finding shared perinatal risk factors; unique prenatal risk factors for SCZ implying both shared & unique risk factors @karolinskainst @natass_robinson https://t.co/KbR6lJQ1xx

[Natassia Robinson @natass_robinson]

Excited to share our recent study investigating early life environmental risk factors for SCZ and BD.. we found many are shared but show higher risk for SCZ while others are distinct risk factors https://t.co/TVUo0dqJOz
