Journal Article
Guerreiro, R., Escott-Price, V., Hernandez, D., Kun-Rodrigues, C., Ross, O., Orme, T., …Bras, J. (2019). Heritability and genetic variance of dementia with Lewy bodies. Neurobiology of Disease, 127, 492-501. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nbd.2019.04.004

Recent large-scale genetic studies have allowed for the first glimpse of the effects of common genetic variability in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), identifying risk variants with appreciable effect sizes. However, it is currently well established... Read More about Heritability and genetic variance of dementia with Lewy bodies.

A comprehensive screening of copy-number variability in dementia with Lewy bodies (2018)
Journal Article
Kun-Rodrigues, C., Orme, T., Carmona, S., Hernandez, D. G., Ross, O. A., Eicher, J. D., …Bras, J. (2019). A comprehensive screening of copy-number variability in dementia with Lewy bodies. Neurobiology of Aging, 75, 223.e1-223.e10. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2018.10.019

The role of genetic variability in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is now indisputable, however data regarding copy number variation (CNV) in this disease has been lacking. Here, we used whole genome genotyping of 1,454 DLB cases and 1,525 controls t... Read More about A comprehensive screening of copy-number variability in dementia with Lewy bodies.
