- Title
A new wave in the genetics of psychiatric disorders: the copy number variant tsunami.
- Authors
Joober, Ridha; Boksa, Patricia
- Abstract
The article focuses on molecular genetics which is considered the new trend in the genetics of psychiatric disorders. Various research indicate that one out of every six papers published on schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or autism refers to genetics. With technological advances like genomic hybridization arrays allowed cytogeneticists to go beyond the microscopic level of resolution and to detect chromosomal rearrangements.
