The Challenges and Opportunities for Mental Health Twin Research in Nigeria

2023-08-23

Abstract excerpt

<p>The recent interest in increasing diversity in genetic research can be useful in uncovering novel insights into the genetic architecture of mental health disorders – globally and in previously unexplored settings such as low- and middle-income settings like Nigeria. Genetic research into mental health is potentially promising in Nigeria and we reflect on the challenges and opportunities for twin research which...
