Mothers leave their mark on their children in many ways - and Australian researchers have discovered a protein called SMCHD1 is involved in this 'imprinting' process. SMCHD1 switches certain genes off ...

Genomic imprinting means that specific genes inherited from the mother or father are active, whilst the gene inherited from the other parent is inactive. This preferential expression of one allele is ...

Radicalization is not merely a learned process; it can become imprinted in an incredibly short window of time due to heightened neuroplasticity during awe-inducing events. Awe, as described by Keltner ...
