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 dis

a susceptibility locus for schizophrenia and one report on bipolar disorder were given. A potential locus for nocturnal enuresis has been suggested to reside on chromosome 22.
The report of the 1997 workshop presented overall evidence providing strong support for a susceptibility locus for bipolar disorder at C21q22-23. The 1998 workshop considered the latest results from four groups, and additional studies also have been incorporated into this report. The workshop noted
The chromosomes 8 and 10 workshop took place at the Sixth World Congress on Psychiatric Genetics from October 6 th -10 th , 1998 in Bonn, Germany. Aim of the workshop was to discuss and summarize reports on potential susceptibility genes for psychiatric disorders. Linkage-findings on chromosome 8 co
Recent linkage results independently derived from a large French Canadian pedigree and Danish kindreds coupled with supportive data from other studies provide compelling evidence for a bipolar disorder susceptibility locus on chromosome 12q23-q24. The idea is further strengthened by the finding that
