- Heritability estimates in QTwin sample found here courtesy of Narelle Hansell, Jason Stein, Margie Wright, and Paul Thompson.
- Heritability estimates for the GOBS study are provided by David Glahn. Estimated heritability for the hippocampus from 728 normal individuals in extended pedigrees:
For FreeSurfer the heritability for bilateral hippocampus was 0.779 (SE 0.07); left 0.800 (0.08); right 0.696 (0.08).
For FSL/First the heritability for bilateral hippocampus was 0.704 (SE 0.08); left 0.671 (0.08); right 0.657 (0.08).
