Chunk #149 — 10.0 Where Do We Go From Here? — 10.4 More research on the utility of an endophenotype — 10.4.2 Enhancing our understanding of brain mechanisms
for associations with genetic variants is not a necessary part of this type of research. However, studies that provide a better characterization of the mechanisms underlying a putative endophenotype and the latent genetic risk it reflects will also ultimately be more informative about the neurobehavioral processes associated with a variant that can be verified for the endophenotype-associated disorder or proxy phenotype.
