Haier鈥檚 research (鈥Achievement gap can only be closed if we embrace neuroscience鈥, Opinion, 6 April) uncovers 200 genes that appear unusually active when Jo performs a little algebra, doesn鈥檛 Jo always have the personal option of not being turned on by that topic? Limiting the potential of neuroscience, is Jo more than the sum of her genes?
