An edited volume that looks at the state of psychiatric genetics and how to chart a path forward.
In this edited collection—experts from psychiatric and statistical genetics, neurobiology, and clinical medicine—investigate whether and how to pursue the discovery of additional genetic risk factors for mental illnesses. Using the existing knowledge and frameworks of genetic risk factors, they look at how a better understanding of the biology that underlies mental illnesses can improve and enhance the care that patients receive.
