Marco Boks is an Associate Professor at the University Medical Center Utrecht, affiliated with the Brain strategic program. His research focuses on genetic, epigenetic, and epidemiological studies of gene-environment interplay in psychiatric disorders, particularly bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
His work addresses methodological challenges in genome-wide interaction studies and explores epigenetic mechanisms that mediate environmental influences on genetic transcription. Key themes include
- PTSD-related epigenetic aging
- DNA methylation patterns in neurodegenerative diseases
- Generalizability of clinical cohort findings to real-world patient populations
Scientific honors include:
- NARSAD Young Investigator Award (2010)
- Phenomics Travel Award from Semel Institute (2009)
Recent publications span topics such as epigenetic biomarkers, genomic predictors for neurodegenerative diseases, and cross-disorder genetic analyses between bipolar disorder and depression.
