refers to disorders primarily caused by genetic mutations that affect the nervous system

a type of neurogenetic disease caused by a mutation in a single gene

In neurogenetics, it includes discussing how neurological disorders are inherited and the risks to family.

Genomic sequencing reads an individual's entire DNA to identify genetic variants linked to neurological disorders in neurogenetics.

Epigenetics is about non-DNA changes in gene expression. In neurogenetics, it helps control brain gene activity and can impact neurological disorder development.

The study of RNA transcripts produced by the genome, providing insights into gene activity and changes associated with neurological diseases.

The proportion of trait variation in a population that can be attributed to genetic factors, often studied in the context of neurological conditions like autism or schizophrenia.

Alterations in DNA sequences that can lead to neurological disorders; specific mutations are linked to conditions such as ALS or Huntington’s disease.

A field that explores the role of genes and genomes in the development and function of the nervous system.

A method used to identify specific genomic regions associated with neurological disorders by studying inheritance patterns within families.
