- The problem is particularly acute in this field, where there is a growing realization that many so-called common disorders, such as schizophrenia and autism – are really umbrella terms for collections of very rare disorders. Each of these conditions can be caused by mutations in single genes. http://www.gnxp.com/wp/uncategorized/searching-for-a-needle-in-a-needlestack 48 comments science

- Over 80% of the variation in psychopathy across the population was due to genetic differences. The effect of a shared family environment was almost nil. Psychopathy seems to be a lifelong trait, or combination of traits, which are heavily influenced by genes and hardly at all by social upbringing. http://www.gnxp.com/wp/uncategorized/bad-to-the-bone-the-genes-and-brains-of-psychopaths 10 comments cogsci
