The postgenomic era has seen important advances in the ability to perform large-scale analysis, using microarrays, of the genome at the level of gene sequence, gene copy number and messenger RNA transcript expression. In this review, Coppola and Geschwind discuss how microarray technology is being used to study of the genetics and pathogenesis of neurological disorders, and how it might be used in the future for patient diagnosis and classification into treatment groups.
