Highly recommended podcast! Especially for non-geneticists who wonder about the possible future of genetics in Mental Health. Take a walk and listen to this wonderful overview of Dr Cathryn Lewis acamh.org/blog/investiga…

Interested in happiness? Social relations, mental health and genetics? We have two postdoc opportunities in Oslo. At PROMENTA UiO, with ragnhild bang nes & Eivind Ystrøm. jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

Out now!🎉The difference between bivariate heritability and genetic correlations in bivariate twin models is not always clear or only one is reported. We explain the importance of reporting both in our new paper: doi.org/10.1007/s10519… Hermine Maes Lucía Colodro-Conde Meike Bartels
