Comment on 23andMe finds Parkinsons only 24% heritable

Just as relevant, to me: they were honest about their findings. Compare this to all of the highly flawed studies that some companies have pushed into journals in the past two decades.

Logging in to see my results for Parkinson's, they show a very low confidence interval - 3 grey stars. That seems very honest to me.

Instead, I'm glad they could use all this data to advance the state of the art, and will more likely trust them if they report on some diseases that are more linked to genetics.
