Abstract
The main goal of the Centre is to understand how genes are involved in a range of common psychiatric and neurological disorders, and to use this knowledge to improve our understanding of how these diseases arise and to develop new approaches to diagnosis and treatment. We have known for a long time that genes play an important role in disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Alzheimer disease and Parkinson disease. Now, using modern genetic technologies, we have begun to identify some of the specific genes involved. Centre scientists have been at the heart of these exciting developments, which have begun to yield novel insights into the brain mechanisms involved, and which have also raised important questions about the validity of current diagnostic approaches. For example our work has shown that intellectual disability, autism, ADHD and schizophrenia are likely to be much more closely related than previously believed. Our success with existing methods, together with the development of new approaches particularly the ability to determine the sequence of DNA (the genetic code) in large numbers of patients, means that we are confident that further work will allow us to identify more of the genes involved in these disorders and that this will deliver greater understanding into how these diseases arise and the relationships between them. Thus a major focus of ours over the next 5 years will be to continue our work aimed at identifying disease genes in these disorders and in understanding how genetic risk operates both across and within current diagnostic categories.
The second major focus of our work will be look at how risk genes lead to illness. This will be essential if we are to understand the mechanisms by which these diseases come about. This work will use a variety of approaches. First, we will look at the impact of risk genes in the general population for example on indexes of brain and cognitive development in the case of psychiatric disorders and on markers of inflammation, and cardiovascular health in the case of Alzheimer disease. This will help us understand how disease develops across the lifespan, and identify potentially modifiable risk factors or makers of those at increased risk of subsequent disease. The latter will be important for future studies aimed at early intervention. Second, we will develop animal and cellular models allowing us to study in detail the impact of risk genes on the function of nerve cells and brain circuits and on behaviour. Finally, we will study in human volunteers and patients how risk genes impact on brain structure and function using brain imaging methods. By studying cells, animals and patients we will be able to link abnormalities in brain function and behaviour seen in patients to abnormalities in cells and brain circuits. This will help us develop methods to stratify patient populations into specific groups for treatment studies as well to understand the mechanisms by which these diseases develop. These advances will be essential if we are to develop novel and more effective treatments for these disabling conditions.

Technical Summary
We have established a Centre of Excellence in psychiatric genetics, focusing on psychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, Alzheimer disease and Parkinson disease. Over the next 5 years we will retain a strong focus on gene discovery in order to deliver further important insights into disease pathogenesis. We will do this though our clinical, genetic and statistical expertise, our access to suitable patient cohorts, and our proven ability to participate in and provide leadership in large consortia. We will also continue to benefit from our structure of overlapping disease themes supported by a strong genomics, statistical and bioinformatics core. There will be an increasing focus on identifying rare mutations by NGS, and on understanding the significance of genetic findings for risk mechanisms, which will require integration with data from a variety of sources. Moreover, we are now well placed to use genetic findings to obtain greater understanding of pathogenic mechanisms, improve classification, identify biomarkers to aid prediction and intervention and identify novel treatment targets. Broadly speaking this work will take place in two settings. First we will explore the factors that mediate the effects of risk alleles on clinical phenotypes in longitudinal, population-based cohorts and identify biomarkers and modifiable markers of risk through integration of data from other risk factors, gene expression and epigenomics. Second, we will study the impact of risk alleles at molecular, cellular and systems levels through our imaging and cellular/animal models themes. Work in these areas will benefit from our access to patients carrying specific rare, high-penetrance mutations and has been greatly strengthened by our central participation in the Cardiff University Neuroscience and Mental Health Research Institute with which we will be co-located in the new Hadyn Ellis building.
Planned Impact
The main aim of the Centre is to understand how genes are involved in common psychiatric and neurological disorders, and to use this knowledge to improve our understanding of how these diseases arise and to develop new approaches to diagnosis and treatment. The personal and economic burden of these disorders is the largest of all categories of disorder and the development of more effective therapies is a pressing requirement for global health and wellbeing. There will thus be many beneficiaries of our work including sufferers, their families and the wider population upon which much of the economic burden falls. All of the Centre's programmes have specific non-academic impacts linked to their own communications plans. Here we focus on the most immediate areas of impact for the Centre as a whole.
Commercial and Private Sector
The identification of disease risk alleles is of profound interest to molecular, cellular and systems neuroscientists working in the pharmaceutical industry (e.g. Lilly, AZ, Janssen). This allows disease risk to be modeled in systems that are tractable to invasive measurement and intervention, which will be essential in order to identify disease mechanisms and novel drug targets. Those risk alleles that have been identified to date have been the focus of intense industry scrutiny and those emerging from our future work will attract the same level of interest. In addition the rat models we will develop and validate as part of the DEFINE programme will be made available to industry via our agreement with Sigma-Aldrich as will iPSC derived neurons from our patient cohorts via StemBANCC. Our validation of novel animal models of psychiatric disorders will benefit our partners Sigma-Aldrich. Our work on cognition and neuroimaging in relation to genetic risk factors will inform the development of new biomarkers for patient stratification in drug trails and for use as surrogate endpoints in experimental medicine and early phase clinical trials.
Public sector, policy and practice
Our genetics work and theorising has already spearheaded contemporary debate about psychiatric classification and diagnosis. Our future findings on the genetic overlaps and distinctions between current diagnostic groups will continue to inform this debate as psychiatry moves inexorably from the current descriptive system to one that is more in tune with underlying pathogenesis. Our work on genetic and other epidemiological risk markers will be relevant to early diagnosis and identification of those at risk of subsequent psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. These studies will also allow hypothesis-driven studies of causal processes in the general population as well as in clinical samples and longitudinal and quasi-experimental designs. This will inform future intervention policies.
Wider public
Engagement with the general public and with patients and carers is an important part of our mission. This serves not only to communicate our research findings and their relevance but also to address such issues as stigma and the research culture in the NHS in relation to Mental Health. Our commitment to this is based upon our belief that instead of regarding severe mental illnesses as essentially incurable conditions for which the therapeutic focus should be largely palliative, we should regard them as brain disorders which are increasingly tractable to research in genetics, neuroscience, epidemiology etc. We therefore aim to promote research into severe mental illness that focuses not only upon evaluating new models for delivering care but also on understanding pathogenesis and pathophysiology and developing new approaches to treatment.
Skills and Training
We train staff in genetics, statistics, bioinformatics, neuroscience, psychology and psychiatry. Their skills are applicable not only in academia but also more widely including in industry, the NHS, education and policy making.

| Title | Alzhemer's Disease Polygenic Risk Profiling |
| Description | This model used data from the powerful dataset comprising 17 008 cases and 37 154 controls obtained from the International Genomics of Alzheimer's Project (IGAP). Alzheimer's disease (AD) Polygenic risk scores were generated for 3177 cases and 7277 controls (GERAD data) and tested whether the alleles identified to associate with disease in IGAP sample are significantly enriched in the cases relative to the controls in the GERAD sample. The disease prediction accuracy was investigated in a sample of 3049 cases and 1554 controls (for whom APOE genotype data was available) by means of sensitivity, specificity, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and positive and negative predictive values. The best prediction accuracy AUC = 78.2% (95% confidence interval 77-80%) was achieved by a logistic regression model with APOE, the polygenic score, sex and age as predictors. |

| Title | DPUK Genomics portal |
| Description | The DPUK Genetics portal provides a collaborative platform for individuals, DPUK cohorts and the wider research community to share and access research outputs from genetic research. The platform provides two key tools for finding, sharing and analysing genetic data; The Results Registry tool, accessible via the main DPUK web portal, allows searching and uploading of genetic results data. This tool provides a rich set of search tools specific to genetic data and includes visualisation using the popular JBrowse genomic browser. This tool will allow users to share this data. This can be done under secure data transfer agreements if necessary. The second tool is the Genetic Data Browser this is available exclusively within the secure DPUK infrastructure. This will allow users to create cross-cohort comparison studies based on genotypic datasets and linked phenotypic data. This tool provides an interactive dashboard which can pull in phenotypic data and genetic markers from GWAS data and allow users to intuitively explore, combine and export patient cohorts. |
