美国每年大约有3.9万人自杀。这是死亡的第10类最常见原因。科学家正在追缉自杀的遗传基础,开发自杀基因测试。估计没有人能预测奥斯卡得主影星罗宾威廉斯会自杀,或者说他们能预测吗?当有人自杀时,反应往往是相同的。难以置信,但事实摆在眼前;沮丧;或去谈论一个人生命的最后时刻。现在,通过研究打算自杀的人和真正自杀的人的大脑,美国和欧洲两组基因组研究人员声称,他们可以利用DNA测试来实际 About 39,000 people commit suicide each year in the United States. This is the 10th most common cause of death. Scientists are hunting for the genetic basis of suicide and developing suicide gene tests. No one can predict that Oscar winner Robin Williams would commit suicide or would they predict it? The reaction is often the same when someone commits suicide. Unbelievable, but the facts are before us; frustrated; or to talk about the last moments of a person’s life. Now, by studying the brains of people who are going to commit suicide and those who are really suicidal, genome researchers in the United States and Europe claim they can use DNA testing to actually
