Genetic analysis of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder reveals polygenicity but also suggests new directions for molecular interrogation.

Abstract excerpt

Over the last few years, genetics research has made significant strides in identifying many risk factors for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. These risk factors include inherited common single nucleotide polymorphisms, copy number variants, and rare single nucleotide variants, as well as rare de novo variants. For all variants, the common theme has been that of polygenicity, meaning that many small genetic...
