Why Are Some Mice (and People) Monogamous? A Study Points to Genes
Andrés Bendesky, MD, PhD, and colleagues identified a genetic basis for parenting behavior in mice. The findings may help make sense of parenting in humans.

Research from Elizabeth Hillman, PhD, and her team reinforces the use of fMRI as a way to track activity while the brain is at rest.
Our brains are often compared to a computer hard drive between our ears. But the reality, says Daphna Shohamy, PhD, is far more complex.
Kenneth Miller, PhD, writes about whether we will ever be able to 'upload' and recreate an individual’s mind after death — or if we would even want to.
Teens learn differently — and maybe even better — than adults do, according to research led by Daphna Shohamy, PhD.
Daphna Shohamy, PhD, and her team test whether teens' drive for rewards, and the risk-taking that comes from it, exist for a reason.
Daphna Shohamy, PhD, found that teens are great at learning because of the nifty way their brains thread together memory-formation processes.
Impulsivity in teens may serve a noble (and necessary) cognitive purpose, according to research from Daphna Shohamy, PhD.
A new mathematical model of memory by Stefano Fusi, PhD, and team could accelerate the quest to build brain-inspired hardware.
This summer, city high school students worked with the world's leading neuroscientists.
