After many years of unfilled promise, psychiatric genetics has seen an unprecedented number of successes in recent years. We hypothesize that the field has reached an inflection point through a confluence of four key developments: advances in genomics; the orientation of the scientific community around large collaborative team science projects; the development of sample and data repositories; and a policy framework for sharing and accessing these resources. We discuss these domains and their effect on scientific progress and provide a perspective on why we think this is only the beginning of a new era in scientific discovery.
经过多年的无果承诺,精神病遗传学近年来取得了前所未有的成功。我们假设,该领域通过四个关键发展的融合达到了一个转折点:基因组学的进步;科学共同体围绕大型合作团队科学项目的定位;样本和数据存储库的发展;以及共享和访问这些资源的政策框架。我们讨论了这些领域及其对科学进步的影响,并提供了我们认为这只是科学发现新时代开始的原因。
