abstract = {Brain geometry impacts brain function. A quantitative
encoding of form is provided by the Laplace-Beltrami
operator’s spectrum of eigenvalues (LBS). We examined LBS
genetics of 22 subcortical brain structures and cerebellum
in 19,862 healthy White-British UK Biobank participants by
multivariate GWAS on the first 49 eigenvalues each.
Controlling for surface and volume, we identified 80 unique
variants influencing the shapes of one or several
structures, with the highest yield (37 variants) for brain
stem. The previously known influence of several of these
loci on basic morphology, such as volume, is thus shown to
also influence complex shape. Known associations of observed
loci with blood pressure, neurodegeneration, alcohol
consumption, and mental disorders hint at preclinical stages
of these conditions potentially mediating the genetic effect
on brain morphology. Significant correlations between LBS of
several brain structures and the polygenic risks of
hypertension, ischemic stroke and schizophrenia evince brain
shapes as early biomarkers.},
