Just a few weeks ago someone posted the following study on hacker news: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3183507/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3183507/ Here the authors claim that they were able to identify a particular gene that is likely to predispose an individual to extreme impulsiveness.
