摘要
行为遗传学在它的第一个一百年里证明了基因对人类的人格、性情、认知方式和精神障碍的各方面都有影响。但在第二个一百年里,由于忽略了大脑、环境以及基因表达网络在人类行为上的重要性,进展一开始并不尽如人意。人类的行为以及主导行为的大脑网络毫无疑问是由许多基因经由发育和环境错综复杂的巧妙结合而形成产生的,而该领域的进一步深入研究尚有待于未来科技的发展。
In the first 100 years, the genetics of behavior had proved that genes influence virtually every aspect of human personality, temperament, cognitive style, and psychiatric disorder. Yet in its second 100 years, as ignoring the critical importance of the brain, the environment, and gene expression networks, the studies has gotten off a less satisfying start. Human behaviors, and the brain circuits that produce them, are undoubtedly the product of intricate networks involving hundreds to thousands of genes working in concert with multiple developmental and environmental events. Further advances in the field will require the development of techniques.
