Gene regulator in brain's executive hub tracked across lifespan ? NIH study, February 2, 2012 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH)

nih.gov — “For the first time, scientists have tracked the activity, across the lifespan, of an environmentally responsive regulatory mechanism that turns genes on and off in the brain?s executive hub. Among key findings of the study by National Institutes of Health scientists: genes implicated in schizophrenia and autism turn out to be members of a select club of genes in which regulatory activity peaks during an environmentally-sensitive critical period in development.View full resource at nih.gov
