Family studies

The role of genetic factors in bipolar disorder is indicated by concordance in monozygotic and dizygotic twins, respectively, of 57% and 14%, and the correlation between adopted people and their biological relatives (Cadoret, 1978).

Genetic mapping

Studies have explored the relationship between bipolar disorder and a large number of human chromosomes:
