The identical twin-schizophrenia data in this video is from:

Suddath, R., Christison, G., Torrey, E., Casanova, M., and Weinberger, D. (1990). Anatomical abnormalities in the brains of monozygotic twins discordant for schizophrenia. New England Journal of Medicine, 322:789--794. Values used in this video are simulated values based on the summary statistics found in the paper.
