2 Figure 1 Key Figure: Genomics, Neuroscience, and Treatment Innovation in Bipolar Disorder (BD) The study of voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) in BD exemplifies the potential and the challenges of translating genomic discoveries into pathophysiology and therapeutics. Although sometimes portrayed as a one-way, bottom-up, process from genes to treatments, the wheel-like figure emphasises that it is iterative. Underpinning this approach is the increasing wealth of ‘big data’, since it is the scale of both the genomics and the contemporary digital approaches to phenotyping that have driven the developments discussed in this review. Looking ahead, an integrative, collaborative approach will be essential to link the power of big data with the more-focussed, hypothesis-driven studies that are required for most of the intervening segments.
