Seminar @SGDPCentreKCL @KingsIoPPN with Giulia Trotta, Asifa Rapaiee and Aitana Padilla Requerey on Thursday 12th June 2025, 10:00-11:00am.
Massive shout out to @ElhamAssary for this massive and impressive piece of work, and to our much-missed @Rob_Keers who initiated and led the project.
Researchers @KingsCollegeLon @QMULBartsTheLon @UCLBrainScience have found #genetic factors that may make people more sensitive to the environments they experience.
The study in @NatureHumBehav is the largest genetics study of identical #twins to date.

ALT "Differences in individuals’ sensitivity to life experiences can explain why the same negative or positive experiences may have varying effects on people’s mental health, depending on their genetic make-up. Our findings suggest that specific genetic variants influence how environmental exposures impact psychiatric and neurodevelopmental symptoms." Dr Elham Assary, Postdoctoral Researcher at King’s College London

My wonderful father passed away peacefully this morning. He always made me feel so loved and as if I could do anything I wanted to. I’m gutted he’s gone.
V excited about this #PhD opportunity to work with myself and @Joni_Coleman on how genetic and environmental influences jointly affect the development of #anxiety and #PTSD. Drop us an email if you are interested, we'd love to hear from you! @KCL_MRCDTP @KingsCollegeLon #MRCDTP25
