title: Chromosome 6 workshop report.
abstract: The Sixth World Congress on Psychiatric Genetics (Bonn, Germany, October 1998) provided a forum to review the linkage findings for psychiatric disorders on chromosome 6. Interest continues to center on 6p 24-22 for schizophrenia. Another area of possible linkage to both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder exists at 6q 21-22. Neither of these areas maybe considered confirmed at this time.
