Identifying interactions between genes and early environment in the mouse.

Abstract excerpt

Interactions between genetic and early environmental factors are recognized to play a critical role in modulating susceptibility to disease, particularly mental illness. In order to better understand such mechanisms at the molecular level, we have developed a screening paradigm in mice that allows us to test the ability of targeted mutations in candidate genes to modify susceptibility to the long-term effects of...
