GET YOUR GENETIC RISK FOR SCHIZOPHRENIA.

Schizophrenia is a chronic brain disorder with symptoms that can include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, trouble with thinking, and lack of motivation. It affects about 1% of the American population and can only be diagnosed by licensed healthcare professionals.

Schizophrenia is a complex, long-term medical illness that can be difficult to diagnosis, especially in young people. If you are concerned about whether you have schizophrenia or are at risk for schizophrenia, our free app can tell you if you have the genetic markers associated with the risk for developing schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia Self-Assessment App is not a diagnostic or screening tool. Depending on your results, you may want to seek a formal diagnosis and discuss treatment options with a licensed healthcare provider.

EXPLORE WHAT YOUR GENETICS CAN TELL YOU ABOUT YOURSELF AND YOUR LOVED ONES.

Schizophrenia can be inherited and sometimes runs in families.

Schizophrenia Self-Assessment App is based on the latest genomics research linking genetic variations in DNA to mental disorders. No single gene can cause schizophrenia. Instead, many different genes work together to increase one’s risk of developing schizophrenia.

Find out if you or a loved one are at risk for developing this disorder by taking the first step to understanding the genetic predisposition for schizophrenia.

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR MENTAL HEALTH.

Research suggests that a combination of genetic factors and aspects of a person’s environment and life experiences affect the development of schizophrenia.

Find out whether your genes are working for or against you so that you can take control of your mental health and make the choices that will help you thrive.

Schizophrenia Self-Assessment App gives you instant results so you don’t have to wait until “something happens” or when it’s “too late” to do something about your concerns.

"Studies suggest that many different genes may increase a person’s chances of developing schizophrenia, but that no single gene causes the disorder by itself."

“SCHIZOPHRENIA” - NIH NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF MENTAL HEALTH

Based on the latest research.
"[S]chizophrenia risk alleles operate consistently across different ethnic and cultural backgrounds, at least across EAS and EUR ancestries. Given that the main putative environmental risk factors (migration, urbanicity and substance misuse) differ across populations, this finding also suggests any specific genetic liability to schizophrenia acting via these routes is minimal."

NATURE GENETICS

"The polygenic architecture of schizophrenia is accounted for by thousands of common genetic variants with small effect sizes and a few rare variants with large effect sizes."

NATURE REVIEWS NEUROLOGY

High heritability points to a major role for inherited genetic variants in the aetiology of schizophrenia. 7,8 While risk variants range in frequency from common to extremely rare9, estimates10,11 suggest half to a third of the genetic risk of schizophrenia is indexed by common alleles genotyped by current genome-wide association study (GWAS) arrays.
