Perfect Pitch Research Offers Window Into Influences Of Nature And Nurture

Published July 3, 2009, 9:40 am, redOrbit

Practice, practice, practice might get you to Carnegie Hall, but for aspiring musicians, there's new evidence that genes may influence one's ability to get there, as well.Perfect pitch, also known as absolute pitch, is the rare ability to recognize and name musical notes without any reference pitch for comparison, detecting, for instance, A before middle C.

Study strongly supports many genetic contributions to schizophrenia, bipolar disorder

Published July 1, 2009, 10:13 am, EurekAlert!

( Massachusetts General Hospital ) An international research consortium has discovered that many common genetic variants contribute to a person's risk of schizophrenia, providing the first molecular evidence that this form of genetic variation is involved in schizophrenia. The researchers also found that many of these DNA variations also are involved in bipolar disorder but not in several ...
