An international team of academics at the University of Edinburgh found 538 intelligence-related genes, some of which may be related to life expectancy, the University of Edinburgh said in a report released Tuesday.
researchers at the University of Edinburgh, the University of Southampton and Harvard University in the United States compared more than 240,000 people with DNA to see how different genes relate to intelligence.
, according to a report published in the British journal Molecular Psychiatry, the team not only identified 538 genes that affect intelligence, but also identified 187 regions of the human genome associated with the ability to think.
team says this could help the scientific community better understand the biological basis for differences in people's intelligence.
team also found that some of these genes are associated with longevity, but the mechanism needs to be further studied. Ian Diely, a professor at the University of Edinburgh and one of the authors of the
report, said both the environment and genes play a role in shaping human intelligence differences, and the study could help to better understand which genes affect intelligence.
In addition, because some genes can affect both health and intelligence, the correlation between the two is indicated.
