Noncanonical genomic imprinting in the monoamine system determines naturalistic foraging and brain-adrenal axis functions

See press release.

“The revelation that maternal and paternal alleles of the same gene along the brain-adrenal axis could have disparate, or possibly even antagonistic, phenotypic consequences on behavior is an intriguing observation,” says the paper’s first author, Paul Bonthuis, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Comparative Biosciences at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Bonthuis Villain Lab

Villain Lab

On September 10th, the Bonthuis lab took all its’ villainous members to Champaign-Urbana Adventures in Time and Space.  Our super-evil overlord tricked and betrayed his fellow villains and left us with only one hour and our wits to escape from the clutches of his trap and prevent our certain doom!  Is no super-evil overlord to be trusted?  Our logic skills were put to the test, but we escaped and saved ourselves just in the nick of time with only 6 minutes and 55 seconds to spare!  Our maniacal laughter filled the air upon our triumphant escape and proved that we would live to villain another day … and enjoy doing it.
