Affirmation of a developmental systems approach to genetics

Carolyn Tucker Halpern. Behav Brain Sci. 2012 Oct.

Abstract

More than 40 years ago, Gilbert Gottlieb and like-minded scholars argued for the philosophical necessity of approaching genetic contributions to development through a multilevel, bidirectional systems perspective. Charney's target article builds on this heritage in significant ways, offering more recent examples of the interactions of biology and context, as well as the diversity of developmental mechanisms, and reaffirming a way forward for genetic research.
