Major depression is a debilitating psychiatric illness that is typically associated with low mood and an inability to experience joy or pleasure. Major depression is polygenic. In 2019 scientists examined 246,363 people with major depression and 561,190 without major depression. The scientists identified 102 genetic variants correlated with major depression. Would all these 102 genetic variants be found in the genomes of all people with major depression?  [1] Could one or more of these 102 genetic variants be found in the genomes of someone without major depression? [2]

Research on direct-to-consumer genetic testing has shown that people are more likely to make health changes from genetic test results than from general medical advice from a doctor.

All scientists agree that due to the life-saving potential of CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing to treat inherited human diseases that we should allow for gene-editing in human embryos. 

The androgen receptor gene is in on the X chromosome. Some mutations in the androgen receptor gene leads to protein that is partially functional (but not fully functional). What phenotypes would you expect from such a mutation in the androgen receptor in individuals with an X and Y chromosome?
