The lab is using imaging techniques to identify intermediate phenotypes relevant for psychiatric disorders as target phenotypes for gene discovery.

Ridha Joober developed a pharmaco-genetic profile of schizophrenia that may lead to earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment.

The researchers exploring the “Schizophrenia and neurodevelopmental disorders” theme focus on the causes, course, treatment and prevention of: Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder and Gilles de la Tourette syndrome Autism (research and evaluation) In Canada, one in a hundred people will be diagnosed with schizophrenia while 3 to 5% of children have an attention deficit...
