title: [Important current genetic findings in schizophrenia].
abstract: Twin and adoption studies have yielded convincing evidence of the involvement of genetic factors in the aetiology of schizophrenia. A genetic link with chromosome 6 reported just over a year ago has since been confirmed by other research groups. There is reason to hope that one or more schizophrenia genes will be identified in the next few years.
