Here is what I am reading today:
“Thirty-five years ago, researchers studying chimpanzees in the wild noticed that neighboring communities had distinct grooming behaviors that could not be explained by differences in their environments. They contended that these behavioral idiosyncrasies were learned, or “cultural,” and other scientists soon began noting group-specific tool uses and courting behaviors that also didn’t appear to be environmental. But in a new study, researchers say some of these behaviors may be genetic after all.”
‘The N.F.L.’s sudden interest in neuroscience is just the latest sign that we, as a society, are finally taking brain injuries more seriously”…
“When a woman is ovulating, her behavior changes in a startling number of ways from the way she walks, talks and dresses to the men she flirts with, according to new research.”
