Bernard Mazoyer has published numerous papers in various prominent venues. Recent publications include:

  • The genetic architecture of structural left-right asymmetry of the human brain, 2021, Nature Human Behaviour
  • Greater male than female variability in regional brain structure across the lifespan, 2020, Human Brain Mapping
  • Common Genetic Variation Indicates Separate Causes for Periventricular and Deep White Matter Hyperintensities, 2020, Stroke
  • Genetic correlations and genome-wide associations of cortical structure in general population samples of 22,824 adults, 2020, Nature Communications
  • Genomics of perivascular space burden unravels early mechanisms of cerebral small vessel disease, 2023, Nature Medicine

Their frequent co-authors include Christophe Tzourio, Fabrice Crivello, Stéphanie Debette, Ami Tsuchida, and Marc Joliot. Bernard Mazoyer has contributed extensively to the bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) repository and also published work in UNC Libraries, Human Brain Mapping, Brain, and Alzheimer's & Dementia journals.

Their academic outputs span over a wide spectrum of investigation relating to human brain structure, genetics, and neuroimaging techniques, emphasizing the integration of genetic data with neuroimaging phenotypes. This approach contributes insights into complex brain disorders, hemispheric asymmetry, and cerebral small vessel disease.
