We carried out a genome-wide association study of schizophrenia (479 cases, 2,937 controls)
and tested loci with P < 10 −5 in up to 16,726 additional subjects. Of 12 loci followed up, 3 …

A complementarity framework is described for the modeling of certain classes of mixed
continuous/discrete dynamical systems. The use of such a framework is well known for …

Genome scans of bipolar disorder (BPD) have not produced consistent evidence for linkage.
The rank-based genome scan meta-analysis (GSMA) method was applied to 18 BPD …

We introduce a new class of dynamical systems called "linear complementarity systems."
The time evolution of these systems consists of a series of continuous phases separated by "…

Bipolar disorder (BD) is a common and highly heritable mental illness and genome-wide
association studies (GWAS) have robustly identified the first common genetic variants involved …

BACKGROUND: Previous genetic studies investigating a possible involvement of variations
at the brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene locus in major depressive disorder (…

We searched for linkage disequilibrium (LD) in 137 triads with dyslexia, using markers that
span the most-replicated dyslexia susceptibility region on 6p21-p22, and found association …

We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and a follow-up study of bipolar
disorder (BD), a common neuropsychiatric disorder. In the GWAS, we investigated 499,494 …

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA), or male-pattern baldness, is the most common form of hair
loss. Its pathogenesis is androgen dependent, and genetic predisposition is the major …

Dyslexia is among the most common neurodevelopmental disorders, with a prevalence of 5–12%.
At the phenotypic level, various cognitive components that enable reading and …
