The methodology and biological basis of personalized functional regions and imaging genetics

Lay summary

This project is about using new computer techniques to learn how our brains work at an individual level. We want to see if this will help us better understand how our brains control our bodies and behaviour. We will also study how genes are related to this. We hope this will help us find better ways to treat mental illnesses and other problems. The project will take at least three years.

This research is important because it could help us understand how our brains work when we are sick, which could help doctors find better treatments. It could also help scientists learn more about the brain and how it affects our mental health and individual differences. This could lead to new ideas and discoveries that could help people all over the world.
