Association of the dopamine transporter (DAT1) 10/10-repeat genotype with ADHD symptoms and response inhibition in a general population sampleK M Cornish
Neuroscience Laboratory for Research and Education in Developmental Disorders, McGill University, Montreal, Canada
Mol Psychiatry 10:686-98. 2005..The results suggest that DAT1 is a QTL for continuously distributed ADHD behaviours in the general population and the cognitive endophenotype of response inhibition...

Differential impact of the FMR1 gene on visual processing in fragile X syndromeCary S Kogan
Department of Psychology, McGill University, , , Canada
Brain 127:591-601. 2004..Together, these findings provide the first evidence that the loss of a single gene product, FMRP, in humans leads to abnormal neuroanatomical morphology of the LGN and a concomitant selective visual deficit of the M pathway...

MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, Cambridge, UK
J Child Psychol Psychiatry 46:1337-44. 2005..CONCLUSIONS: The results support an association between poor attention and a relative rightward bias in visual awareness that may stem from right hemisphere inefficiency...
