This letter reflects on my collaborations with Nick Martin over the past 18 years. Working together we have applied twin-family and statistical genetics methods to examine the genetic architecture and identify genetic variants influencing a range of physical, psychological and social traits. The common thread across much of this work has been the empirical questions: Why are we the way we are and how can this knowledge help us when things go wrong?
这封信回顾了我在过去18年里与尼克·马丁的合作。我们共同运用双胞胎家庭和统计遗传学方法，来研究遗传结构，并识别影响一系列身体、心理和社会特征的基因变异。这项工作的大部分内容都围绕着一个实证问题：为什么我们是现在这样？当出现问题时，这些知识如何帮助我们？
