Multiple bases of human intelligence revealed by cortical thickness and neural activation.

6 Oct 2008 We hypothesized that individual differences in intelligence (Spearman's g) are supported by multiple brain regions, and in particular that fluid (gF) and crystallized (gC) components of intelligence are related to brain function and structure with ... Read more...

The neuregulin 1 promoter polymorphism rs6994992 is not associated with chronic schizophrenia or neurocognition.

3 Oct 2008 The neuregulin 1 (NRG1) promoter single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs6994992 has shown association with decreased activation of frontal and temporal lobe regions, increased risk of psychosis, and decreased premorbid IQ. This SNP is part of a ... Read more...
