Molecular Genetics of Aggressive Behavior in Drosophila Melanogaster …genetics of aggression, despite the fact that this type of behavior has been documented in flies. We have been attempting to find out which genes and proteins get “turned on”…
Epigenetic Influences on the Development of the Serotonin System: A Mechanism of Risk for Chronic Aggressive Behaviors in Humans? …responded to various types of emotional information. A DNA sample was taken to study DNA methylation. We found that, while controlling for genetics, prenatal (before-birth) factors but not postnatal (after-birth)…

The Association of Polymorphisms in Genes affecting Monoamine Neurotransmission with Aggressive Behavior in Schizophrenic Violent Individuals Violence remains an important sociobiological problem, and is reported to affect approximately 3.7% of the population each year. In the mentally ill, the prevalence of violent behavior is higher that…
Identifying Genes Responsible for a Highly Heritable Aspect of Antisocial Behavior in 7-Year-Old Children Our recent work on the genetic basis of antisocial behavior has concentrated on defining the most heritable antisocial behavior phenotype for molecular genetic analyses. We have now repeatedly demonstrated that…
