Text

Several G×E papers focusing on stress-related genes and alcohol consumption phenotypes in the Mannheim Study of Children at Risk have been published recently. This is an epidemiologic cohort study originally of 384 German children followed since they were in utero. Environmental stressors include family adversity during the year before birth, a measure derived from parental interview at 3 months after birth, and recent SLEs.
