WE ARE HIRING #2 |POSTDOCS| with @AlbaLanguage and @malucinca@UCSF to help us understand the interactions between language and math, by studying cognitive decline in neuropsychological patients, with neuroimaging methods and a massive dataset!

Our paper is officially out! We show that in addition to spatial null models there is a need for testing gene specificity in transcriptome-neuroimaging studies. https://t.co/ql9SqTw0JQ
Shaking up the genetic landscape of dyslexia. Our new preprint describes DNA analysis in 51,800 adults with dyslexia diagnosis & >1 million people without a diagnosis, finding 42 independent loci that harbour common variants associated with the trait. https://t.co/QJ9zjtZsZM 1/n

We are delighted to announce Leipzig Lectures on Language 2021 (#LeipzigLang21)—a novel series of online talks on #combinatorics in #language. The series aims to highlight the directions into which junior scholars are currently moving forward. Details: https://t.co/WtkgpSgVnf
GREAT paper in N=8.5k! Dyslexia shows SNP-based heritability of 20–25%. Genetic links to ADHD, other psychiatric dis, edu attainment, intelligence, & TTG thickness. In Mol Psych. By a large EU team including @elninobarbudo@FranckRamus@silParacchini. https://t.co/hs5HU9z7tt
Congratulations to @FriedericiLab's newly minted Dr @ting_tingqi who successfully defended her thesis yesterday! 🎉🧠🎉 Due to #COVIDー19, the lab could only cheer for Ting virtually; still a small group got to celebrate with her in person (keeping their distance, of course). 🥳
Check out the amazing paper by @yongbin_wei published in Nature Communications @NatureComms Genetic mapping and evolutionary analysis of human-expanded cognitive networks https://t.co/1pdmrSOfqy
Last week (September 4th-6th), @FriedericiLab went on retreat to picturesque #Zeuthen (close to Berlin) to discuss, talk, and brainstorm about our past, current, and future projects investigating the neurobiological basis of #language in the mature and developing 🧠. (1/2)
