Research Contributions

Vaidutis Kučinskas has made significant contributions to the field of human genetics. In 2022 alone, he co-authored several papers that delved into various genetic topics, such as the analysis of generational shifts in Lithuanian genomes, the identification of a splice site variant causing Christianson Syndrome, and the mapping of genomic loci related to schizophrenia. His research also includes studies on the associations of serum carotenoid concentrations with specific genes and the exploration of taste preferences within the Lithuanian population. Additionally, Kučinskas has investigated the impact of de novo variants on intellectual disability and identified potentially protective alleles for multifactorial diseases in Lithuanian Chernobyl catastrophe liquidators.
