Health psychology researchers working in the fields of psychosomatic medicine and psychoneuroimmunology, for example, are interested in understanding how psychological factors can “get under the skin” and influence our physiology in order to better und…

(The binding ability of these particular proteins comes from their forked shape, from which the gene family gets its name.) The FOXP2 gene would appear to play an important role in orchestrating the establishment of the neural pathways during embryonic development, some of which are required for normal vocalizatio…

Learning how to best support and encourage language development is critical as language experience during the first three years is a foundation for language and cognitive abilities later in childhood (Gilkerson et al., 2018).
