OHSU Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

The KCVI Epigenetics Consortium is pleased to offer the first OHSU Epigenetics Symposium. We are excited to host two keynote speakers: Dr. Marisa Bartolomei (University of Pennsylvania) and Dr. Joe Ecker (UC San Diego).

The program will include talks from investigators whose research focuses on epigenetics and posters from graduate students, postdocs, and research staff. A reception will follow. We hope to see you there!

Fantastic highlight of the work of OHSU Bioinformatics and Computational Biology faculty Dr. Michael Mooney and colleagues ! Neuroimaging studies of ADHD have been hindered by small sample sizes, small effects, and differences among study methods. They demonstrate that an ADHD polyneuro risk score (PNRS), representing brain-wide connectivity patterns, was robustly associated with ADHD symptoms in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study and the Oregon-ADHD-1000 cohort. The findings highlight the promise of approaches examining cumulative, brain-wide effects, and the importance of using large samples for improving reproducibility of neuroimaging studies.
