Project Summary: Given the known importance of both genetics and environment in brain function, and the role of neuroimaging in revealing brain dysfunction, integrating genetics with brain imaging will fundamentally change our understanding of human brain function in disease. To realize the promise of this synergy, we must develop novel analytic, statistical, and visualization techniques for this new field of Imaging Genetics. The purpose of this proposal is to request core support for the Sixth through the Eighth Annual International Imaging Genetics Conferences, focusing on the advancement of the new discipline, Imaging Genetics, and the transdisciplinary fusion that is its foundation. The International Imaging Genetics Conferences are two-day meetings which bring together national and international experts in neuroimaging, genetics, data-mining, visualization and statistics, to present their research and findings as they relate to the field of Imaging Genetics. Panel sessions are held on both days of the conference to allow for in-depth discussion of the day¿s talks between the audience and the speakers.These conferences are planned for each January from 2010 to 2012. This proposal will serve four aims: Aim 1. To enhance transdisciplinary scholarship in imaging genetics by engaging a diverse group of investigators in the various relevant disciplines. Aim 2: To synthesize and make more accessible to investigators the current methods and issues involved in imaging genetics. Aim 3: To develop strategies to improve the continued dissemination of knowledge from research on imaging genetics to future students, and researchers. Aim 4: To provide core support for the 6th and the 8th Annual International Imaging Genetics Conferences, focusing on the advancement of the new discipline, Imaging Genetics. The objective of the International Imaging Genetics Conference is to promote the growth and maturation of the emerging field of imaging genetics. In support of this objective, the conference provides a unique opportunity for interaction among experts and students in the wide-ranging fields of neuroimaging, genetics, statistical analysis, and clinical studies. These interactions, based on the scientific presentations at the conference, provide the necessary substrate for the novel methods and findings needed by the field to develop.

项目摘要： 鉴于遗传学和环境在脑功能中的已知重要性以及神经影像在揭示脑功能障碍中的作用，将遗传学与脑成像整合在一起将从根本上改变我们对人类脑功能在疾病中的理解。为了实现这种协同作用的希望，我们必须为这个新的成像遗传学领域开发新的分析，统计和可视化技术。 该提案的目的是通过第八届年度国际成像遗传会议要求第六次核心支持，重点关注新学科，成像遗传学和跨学科融合的发展，这是其基础。国际成像遗传学会议是为期两天的会议，将国家和国际专家汇集在神经影像，遗传学，数据挖掘，可视化和统计学方面，在与成像遗传学领域相关的过程中介绍了他们的研究和发现。面板会议均在会议的两天都进行，以允许对当天的观众和演讲者之间的谈判进行深入讨论。这些会议计划于2010年至2012年为每年1月举行。该建议将达到四个目标：四个目标： 目的1。通过与各种相关学科的潜水者群体参与成像遗传学的跨学科科学。 目标2：综合并使研究人员更容易进入成像遗传学中涉及的方法和问题。 目的3：制定策略，以改善从成像遗传学研究的知识持续传播到未来的学生和研究人员。 目标4：为第六和第八届年度国际成像遗传学会议提供核心支持，重点是新学科的进步，成像遗传学。 国际成像遗传学会议的目的是促进成像遗传学新兴领域的成长和成熟。为了支持这一目标，会议为专家和学生之间的互动提供了独特的机会，该专家和学生在神经影像，遗传学，统计分析和临床研究的广泛领域中提供了机会。这些相互作用基于会议上的科学演示，为该领域所需的新方法和发现提供了必要的底物。
