Title of project: 
A GWAS of child's ability to cope as measured by SDQ
Proposal summary: 

I will perform a genome wide association study in which I hope to identify variants within the genome that may confer 'resilience', as measured by a strengths and difficulties questionnaire administered at age 11. This may identify genes which also confer an ability to cope with adverse life events, illness and birth defects such as cleft lip and palate. This will ultimately be useful for identifying those individuals who may need more interventions/close monitoring during adverse situations.
