Heritability analyses were performed with clinical chemistry data collected on 360 twin pairs of white, middle-aged male veterans during the second examination of the NHLBI Twin Study, a multicenter study of cardiovascular disease risk factors. Significant genetic variability was present for albumin
## Abstract To evaluate baboons (__Papio hamadryas__) as a primate model for the study of the genetic control of brain size and internal structure, we performed high resolution (<500 ฮผm) magnetic resonance imaging on 109 pedigreed baboons.
