- A new method of genetic analysis developed by researchers based at the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI), the University of Queensland Diamantina Institute (UQDI) and the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR) has shed fresh light on the elusive genetic underpinnings of schizophrenia.
- Researchers from Brisbane, Edinburgh and Aberdeen have revisited about 2,000 people who had intelligence tests in 1932 or 1947, and shown that genetic factors may account for about a quarter of the changes in intelligence over their lives.
- Research to tackle the pressing health problem of ageing dementia has received a generous $43,000 boost from one of Australia’s largest trustees, The Trust Company Ltd.
