Research Abstract |
To contribute the rise of"comparative cognitive genomics", to address the question"What makes us human?"from the integrative standpoint of genome and mind, we have tried a series of seminal studies and obtained preliminary but fruitful results on polymorphic analyses of taste and olfactory receptor genes and behavioral development of dizygotic twin chimpanzees.
