Paper Summary:

This essay examines the role of genetics in schizophrenia making reference to several monozygotic and dizygotic twin case studies as well as adoption studies. The influence of pre-natal environment on schizophrenia and brain imaging as confirming a physiological basis for schizophrenia are also dealt with in this essay.

From the paper:

?When looking at possible genetic causes for a disorder as complex as schizophrenia, the researchers must control as many variables as possible. They cannot control the possible influences of neonatal events, child rearing or other life events that might contribute to the person?s mental state.?
