The ISGC is a collaborative enterprise by researchers interested in the genetic basis of stroke. As such members pursue their own research as well as coming together under the ISGC banner to conduct larger, collaborative studies. Publications resulting from such studies, with the ISGC as an author, are listed here. Further details on the specific publications can be found by clicking on the links below. Links to individual researchers publications, in which the ISGC is not listed as an author, will not be listed here.
