Generalist genes and cognitive neuroscience.

Current opinion in neurobiology - 1 Apr 2006

Butcher Lee M, Kennedy Joanna Kj, Plomin Robert

Abstract excerpt

Multivariate genetic research suggests that a single set of genes affects most cognitive abilities and disabilities. This finding already has far-reaching implications for cognitive neuroscience, and will become even more revealing when this - presumably large - set of generalist genes is identified. Similar to other complex disorders and dimensions, molecular genetic research on cognitive abilities and...
