Abstract

The article offers information on psychiatric disease. It is attributable either to disordered circuitry or to disordered activity in brain circuitry. It mentions that genetic strategies converge, as a Genome study can only be turned into a confirmed gene by finding an excess of rare deleterious mutations in it, which means eventually searching for rare variants. With next-generation sequencing possiblity, DNA technology is mature to find structural variants and coding mutations.
