TL;DR: This study identifies a novel locus for neuroticism located in a known gene that has been associated with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia in previous studies and shows that neuroticism is influenced by many genetic variants of small effect that are either common or tagged by common variants.

TL;DR: A large meta-analysis of GWA studies for extraversion in 63,030 subjects in 29 cohorts shows that extraversion is a highly polygenic personality trait, with an architecture possibly different from other complex human traits, including other personality traits.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the neural control of social emotional behavior
TL;DR: The role of the lateral OFC in the voluntary control of social-motivational behavior is qualified, emphasizing the relevance of this region for selecting rule-driven stimulus- response associations, while overriding automatic (affect-congruent) stimulus-response mappings.

TL;DR: The identification of previously reported CNVs and of new, rare, large CNVs further supports a model of schizophrenia that includes the effect of multiple, Rare, highly penetrant variants.

TL;DR: This study is the first to evaluate putative modulations of serum VEGF induced by ECT in TRD patients, and found a significant correlation between the V EGF increase at T2 and the reduction in MADRS scores.
