SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Nov. 24 (TNSjou) -- The University of Utah Health issued the following news release:
Little is known about how social behavior develops in the earliest stages of life. But most animals--including humans--are born with an innate ability to interact socially or form bonds with others. And that contributes to success throughout life.
Now, a new animal study points to a gene that is important for the earliest development of basic social behaviors.
