- Kenneth Seedman Kendler. Catedrático de Psiquiatría y de Genética Humana en el Colegio Médico de Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University. El doctor Kendler se formó como médico y psiquiatra en la Universidad de Stanford y la Universidad de Yale, respectivamente. Desde 1983, ha participado en estudios de genética de los trastornos psiquiátricos y trastornos por uso de sustancias, incluyendo la esquizofrenia, depresión mayor, alcoholismo y dependencia a la nicotina. Ha utilizado métodos que van desde estudios familiares, pasando por estudios de gemelos basados en grandes muestras de población, hasta estudios de genética molecular encaminados a identificar la localización genómica de genes específicos que influyen en la vulnerabilidad a la esquizofrenia, el alcoholismo y la dependencia de la nicotina. También ha examinado la relación entre las diversas dimensiones de la religiosidad y el riesgo de trastornos psiquiátricos y trastornos por uso de sustancias. La recopilación de datos de estos estudios se ha completado en Virginia, Irlanda, Irlanda del Norte, Noruega y Suecia. Ha publicado más de 500 trabajos en revistas especializadas, ha recibido varios premios nacionales e internacionales por su trabajo, trabaja en varios comités editoriales, y es editor de Psychological Medicine. Desde 1996, ha trabajado como Director del Instituto de Virginia de Psiquiatría y Genética del Comportamiento (Virginia Institute of Psychiatric and Behavioral Genetics). (es)
- Kenneth S. Kendler (born July 12, 1950) is an American psychiatrist best known for his pioneering research in psychiatric genetics, particularly the genetic causes of schizophrenia. Kendler is one of the highest cited psychiatry researchers. Between 1990 and 1998 he was the 2nd highest cited psychiatrist, and for the 1997-2007 decade he was ranked 4th by Thomson Reuters' Science Watch. He has authored over 1,200 papers and in 2016 his h-index was 126. Kendler's group was also noted for the replication of a study of Avshalom Caspi on the interaction of stressful life events and a serotonin transporter polymorphism in the prediction of episodes of major depression. Kendler is a Banks Distinguished Professor of Psychiatry, Professor of Human Genetics, and Director of the Virginia Institute of Psychiatric and Behavioral Genetics at the Virginia Commonwealth University. Kendler is also one of the two Editors of Psychological Medicine. He served on the Work Group that revised the DSM-III, on the Task Force for DSM-IV, and on the DSM-5 Work Group for Mood Disorders. Kendler is also interested in philosophical issues in psychiatry. Kendler co-wrote with Edith Zerbin-Rüdin, daughter of Nazi psychiatrist Ernst Rüdin, a history of Ernst Rüdin’s work during World War II. During World War II, Rudin was a member of the Nazi Expert Committee on Questions of Population and Racial Policy who vociferously advocated the extermination of individuals with schizophrenia. Kendler is the second son of Howard H. Kendler and Tracy Kendler, both of whom were influential academic psychologists. They named their son Kenneth after Kenneth W. Spence, the doctoral advisor they both shared when studying at the University of Iowa. Kendler is married to Susan Miller, with whom he has three children. (en)
