A team of over 250 researchers from more than 20 countries have 
discovered that common genetic variations contribute to a person's 
risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

Despite the availability of treatments, these illnesses are usually 
chronic, and response to treatment is often incomplete, leading to 
prolonged disability and personal suffering. Family history, which 
reflects genetic inheritance, is a strong risk factor for both 
schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and it has generally been assumed 
that dozens of genes, along with environmental factors, contribute to 
disease risk.
