Individual Differences in Social Behavior and Cortical Vasopressin Receptor: Genetics, Epigenetics, and Evolution

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Social behavior is among the most complex and variable of traits. Despite its diversity, we know little about how genetic and developmental factors interact to shape natural variation in social behavior.

How to Foster Challenging Interdisciplinary Collaborations: Can Philosophy Support Neuroscientists?

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 11, June 2026.
Neuroscience as part of the natural sciences can engage in interdisciplinary projects with other academic disciplines, such as the humanities and the social science. In addition, within the overall disciplinary framework of neuroscience, interdisciplinary‐type interactions can occur between the fields of biological, clinical, and computational ...

An integrative view of mammalian seasonal neuroendocrinology

Journal of neuroendocrinology, 2019
Seasonal neuroendocrine cycles that govern annual changes in reproductive activity, energy metabolism and hair growth are almost ubiquitous in mammals that have evolved at temperate and polar latitudes. Changes in nocturnal melatonin secretion regulating

Recent advances in the study of reproductive function in pediatric patients with brain tumors

Frontiers in Pediatrics
In recent years, pediatric brain tumors have emerged as one of the most common malignant tumors among children. The site of tumor growth and the selected treatment modalities can potentially have a profound and significant impact on the reproductive ...

The role of dopamine release and D2 dopamine receptor in GHRH and somatostatin cells in controlling growth hormone secretion

Frontiers in Endocrinology
IntroductionPituitary growth hormone (GH) secretion is primarily controlled by GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) and somatostatin (SST), peptides produced by hypothalamic neurons. Evidence indicates that dopamine also modulates GH secretion, potentially via D2

Facial mimicry to infant and adult emotions in mothers and non‐mothers

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract A key aspect of parent–infant interaction is parental mirroring of infant emotions through facial mimicry, the automatic imitation of observed facial expressions. Facial mimicry can be measured using facial electromyography (EMG) and has been associated with empathic abilities, such as recognizing others' emotions.
