Large-scale genomic investigations have just begun to illuminate the molecular
genetic contributions to major psychiatric illnesses, ranging from
small-effect-size common variants to larger-effect-size rare mutations. The
findings provide causal anchors from which to understand their neurobiological
basis. Although these studies represent enormous success, they highlight major
challenges reflected in the heterogeneity and polygenicity of all of these
conditions and the difficulty of connecting multiple levels of molecular,
cellular, and circuit functions to complex human behavior. Nevertheless, these
advances place us on the threshold of a new frontier in the pathophysiological
understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of psychiatric disease.
