DOI: 10.1016/j.bbr.2018.04.004
Abstract: Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders commonly characterised by verbal and non‐verbal communication deficits, impaired social interaction and repetitive, stereotypic behaviours. The aetiology of ASD is most likely a combination… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2023.38.s1.5732554
Abstract: Rats are a major model for studying complex disease mechanisms, behavioral phenotypes, environmental factors, and for drug development and discovery. Inbred rat strains control for genetic background and allow for repeated, reproducible molecular, cellular, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2019.00291
Abstract: The interfrontal bone (IF) is a minor skeletal trait residing between the frontal bones. IF is considered a quasi-continuous trait. Genetic and environmental factors appear to play roles in its development. The mechanism(s) underlying IF… read more here.
