The #genetics that contribute to quantity of #alcohol consumed only partially overlaps with the genetics that contribute to alcohol use disorder (#addiction). Similar for #cannabis. @PGCgenetics Substance Use Disorder group.

A #GWAS of a common #genetic vulnerability factor that underlies several substance use disorders (#addictions) identified 19 independent risk loci, many related to #dopaminergic signaling & regulation (@AlexanderHatoum, Nature Mental Health, in press; bit.ly/3VzzFtd) 2/2
ENIGMA-Addiction Consortium retweeted
Substance use disorders (SUDs, #addiction) are defined by problems caused by misuse of a drug, i.e. #alcohol use disorder by problems caused by misuse of alcohol. There is a lot of comorbidity among SUDs. Current #genetic findings reviewed: bit.ly/3wlTiLN (1/10)
ENIGMA-Addiction Consortium retweeted
A GWAS of the factors showed some #genes associated with consumption and others with problems. bit.ly/3NcfsWr (4/4)
Job alert!! 📢🚨 We are looking for postdoc to join us. Candidate must have completed doctorate training in a neuroscience-related discipline. Experience with MRI and genetics desirable. More info and contact details in the link below 👇

New publication in the group!! WM differences in individuals with dependence on stimulants using data from 11 international sites. Thanks to all our members for making this work possible!! 🙏🥳
our latest work w/@AddictionEnigma is out!! 📢🧠 we explored WM differences in a multi-site sample of ~800 individuals with dependence on #cocaine, #methamphetamine and #nicotine and used #MachineLearning to derive brain-based classifications using #DTI

So excited about all the fascinating projects and findings presented in the @AddictionEnigma members meeting today!
🧠Sex differences in neuroanatomy of SUD (@lorenzvnt @HBMRC_ACU), cerebellar volume & SUD (@egarzav), structural covariates of abstinence (@Leon_Fonville) and more!
better late than never – here is the latest ENIGMA-Addiction teleconference held on June '21 where we discussed polygenic risk scores and new MRI modalities available soon in the group (DTI, rs-fMRI) #addiction #neuroscience

Do you have #neuroimaging or #genetic data to contribute for secondary analyses? You could become a member of @AddictionEnigma, an international working group of @enigmabrains that collects data relevant to #addiction phenotypes across substances. See flyer for further info👇
**New paper on @JAMAPsych** Cannabis use associated with accelerated cortical thinning from 14 to 19 years of age predominantly in prefrontal regions #development #brain #neuroscience
