Abstract excerpt
We have developed a two-tiered approach to elucidating the genetic predisposition to schizophrenia. The approach first involves the examination of candidate genes in a subset of schizophrenic individuals to identify DNA sequence variations of likely functional significance, i.e., that produce eit...
