Genes and social behavior.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 7 Nov 2008

Robinson Gene E, Fernald Russell D, Clayton David F

Abstract excerpt

What genes and regulatory sequences contribute to the organization and functioning of neural circuits and molecular pathways in the brain that support social behavior? How does social experience interact with information in the genome to modulate brain activity? Here, we address these questions by highlighting progress that has been made in identifying and understanding two key "vectors of influence" that link...
