Neurogenetics

Neurogenetics is the study of how our genes influence the development and functioning of the nervous system, affecting behaviors, brain structure, and neurological disorders. It combines principles from genetics, neuroscience, and biophysics to understand how genetic variations can lead to differences in brain activity and behavior. This field helps researchers uncover the biological basis of mental health conditions and cognitive functions, revealing the interplay between our DNA and how our brains work. Insights from neurogenetics can lead to advancements in treatments and a better understanding of the human mind.
