The University of Pennsylvania, through its Clinical Practices division, was awarded a $702,928 Project Grant from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242). The grant, awarded on January 21, 2025, will fund a comprehensive research project to integrate multi-organ imaging data, psychiatric genetics, and functional genomics to uncover the shared neural foundations and genetic pathways underlying psychiatric disorders. The project aims to leverage large-scale imaging and genetic datasets to identify novel biomarkers and improve understanding of the etiology of mental health conditions. By convergence of evidence from this multi-modal data integration, the research seeks to decode the complex genetic underpinnings of psychiatric disorders and discover improved biological targets. The project will run through November 30, 2029.
