Project Summary

Peter M. Thompson, M.D. (Young Investigator 2001) of University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, aims to determine the messenger RNA that is expressed differently in patients with bipolar disorder as compared to control subjects. Sophisticated molecular genetic techniques will be used. The identified genes might serve as biologic markers for bipolar illness, thus aiding in diagnosis, and providing important new leads into the causes of bipolar disorder.
