Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Objective: Although the genetic contribution to the development of anorexia nervosa (AN) has long been recognized, there has been little progress relative to other psychiatric disorders in identifying specific susceptibility genes. Here, we have carried out a genome-wide association study on an unselected community sample of female twins surveyed for eating disorders.
237 European ancestry female cases, 2,287 European ancestry female controls
