ABSTRACT
What is the role of behavioral genetics and psychology in general in the post human genome era? What do we really know? First off, HUGO has given us a map with addresses, and perhaps who lives at those addresses, but even less idea of the occupations of the occupants. In other words, even though we have a genetic sequence, we have very little knowledge concerning the functions of the many potential variants at each genetic “address” or locus. Nonetheless, psychology has already played an important role, and should play an even greater role in the future of understanding how genes function.
